The topic for #zenoss-testing is: Thursday is QA Test Day: Zenoss Alpha #4 message/48695 (9:23:02 AM)
9:56:44 AM bbibeault: Install complete, adding in the default 25 QA test systems.
11:33:23 AM Jane_Curry: Just installed the latest drop...
11:33:48 AM Jane_Curry: The first thing that hits you having completed an installation is the dashboard...
11:34:19 AM Jane_Curry: which has an enticing map that says you haven't setup your googlemaps key..
11:34:29 AM Jane_Curry: and to go to the Settings page..
11:34:42 AM Jane_Curry: but the Settings page is now a lot less obvious!
11:36:51 AM Jane_Curry: Come to that.....
11:37:11 AM Jane_Curry: once you have found the settings page and entered the API key (which works fine)..
11:37:43 AM Jane_Curry: the box above the API key is for Administrative Roles..
11:38:24 AM Jane_Curry: (Administrator, Analyst, Engineer, Tester)
11:38:57 AM Jane_Curry: I don't think these roles have ever been used or documented??? Are they ever going to be??
11:39:12 AM Jane_Curry: If not, perhaps this field should be removed?
11:40:50 AM mrayzenoss: good points
11:41:19 AM mrayzenoss: looks like cruft
11:43:26 AM Jane_Curry: You seem to have fixed the bug whereby backups fail if you have no ZenPacks installed - thanks!
11:49:50 AM Jane_Curry: Do you expect us to be able to install ZenPacks on this code drop??
11:50:12 AM Jane_Curry: I have just tried to install the MIB Browser Zenapck 1.08 and get the same error reported
11:50:36 AM Jane_Curry: in ticket #6564 from the first alpha drop
11:59:52 AM Jane_Curry: Also tried installing a simple ZenPack I use to port event definitions between boxes. That fails with:
12:00:00 PM Jane_Curry: ERROR: zenpack command failed. Reason: ZipImportError: can't open Zip file: '/code/ZenPacks.skills1st.eventManagementWorkshop-1.0-py2.4.egg'
12:03:56 PM Jane_Curry: Actually, the community ZenPacks do seem to have installed code in the right places but zenpack --list shows an empty list
12:06:27 PM bbibeault1: Sorry, all, just switched computers and missed some of the previous updates.
12:13:49 PM Jane_Curry: oh-oh - does that mean that you don't have access to my comments between 17:33 and 18:03 (UK time)? Do you want them repasted?
12:14:56 PM bbibeault1: If you can, I would appreciate it, Jane. Sorry.
12:15:01 PM bbibeault1: I have the comments, but on my other PC.

12:36:54 PM Jane_Curry: Disappearing for an hour or so....
12:37:29 PM bbibeault1: Thanks Jane, let me work on this.
12:57:23 PM bbibeault1: Jane, we haven't had a chance to look at #6564 yet. I will try and mention it at today's defect review.
12:59:03 PM bbibeault1: Jane, for the 2nd issue with the "ZipImportError: can't open Zip file" error - can you please open a ticket for that? I have seen nothing around this in Trac.
1:46:11 PM bbibeault1: Defect review meeting starting in 10 minutes.
2:19:31 PM mrayzenoss: Jane_Curry: we bumped your ticket to a 1, we're gonna need ZenPacks to load in 3.0
2:20:51 PM Jane_Curry: Thanks Matt...
2:21:19 PM Jane_Curry: I was being stupid over my own ZenPacks that didn't load with the ZipImportError...
2:21:38 PM Jane_Curry: they were owned by the wrong user with the wrong permissions..
2:21:49 PM mrayzenoss: sounds like we need a better error message
2:21:56 PM Jane_Curry: when I fixed that, I get the same message as for the community ZenPacks
2:38:03 PM Jane_Curry: You seem to have fixed the problem about adding / editing interfaces..
2:38:35 PM Jane_Curry: I can now manually add interfaces to a device (to get around unmanageable parts of the network problems)
2:40:25 PM Jane_Curry: You also seem to have fixed 6572 about following the event class link from an event console - thanks
2:40:38 PM Jane_Curry: signing off now...
2:40:47 PM Jane_Curry: Bye!!!!
2:42:51 PM mrayzenoss: thanks Jane
3:14:58 PM bbibeault1: Does anyone else have any feedback to share?
3:33:29 PM mrayzenoss: *fails to think of anything witty*
3:33:49 PM bbibeault1: I often have that problem, too.
