Summary: autoyast forgets DNS settings in resolv.conf in stage
2.
Classification: openSUSE
Product: openSUSE 12.1
Version: Final
Platform: All
OS/Version: openSUSE 12.1
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: AutoYaST
AssignedTo: ug@suse.com

When installing with autoyast (with keep_install_network; with sysvinit, but
unsure if this latter fact matters), /etc/resolv.conf will be empty when stage
2 comes up, resulting in various subsequent errors for profile content that
tries to use DNS (like <add-on>).
Workaround: Add the following script (which also verifies that the resolv.conf
was indeed empty):
---------- 8< ----------
<scripts>
<post-scripts config:type="list">
<script>
<debug config:type="boolean">true</debug>
<feedback config:type="boolean">false</feedback>
<filename>fixresolv</filename>
<interpreter>shell</interpreter>
true
<source><![CDATA[resolv=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf)
if [ -z "$resolv" ]; then
echo "# resolv.conf was empty, ftfy.
nameserver xxx.yyy.xxx.yyy" >> /etc/resolv.conf
fi
]]></source>
</script>
</post-scripts>
</scripts>
---------- >8 ----------
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. install with profile containing valid network settings like below
2. experience stage 2 not only firing, but also blowing up (;
Actual Results:
Installation fails due to empty /etc/resolv.conf (tested both [a] with static
network settings and explicit nameserver definition and [b] with dhcp-provided
network settings).
Expected Results:
/etc/resolv.conf should contain the nameserver specified in the network
settings.
