I've been working to get a test box up and running for a while now as time permitted and for reasons I don't know I cannot install packages to new servers, I just push the button and it doesn't do anything. The second issue is I can't schedule any repo syncs. I try to schedule the sync and nothing happens. I can get remote commands to work, but nothing else. Suggestions? I have no idea where to even look. I am getting this in /var/log/messages 2020-12-07T15:44:51.960474-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: Traceback (most recent call last): 2020-12-07T15:44:51.960667-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/salt/loader.py", line 853, in grains 2020-12-07T15:44:51.960840-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: ret = funcs[key](**kwargs) 2020-12-07T15:44:51.961009-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/salt/grains/extra.py", line 106, in uefi 2020-12-07T15:44:51.961274-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: "efi-secure-boot": __secure_boot(), 2020-12-07T15:44:51.961489-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/salt/grains/extra.py", line 97, in __secure_boot 2020-12-07T15:44:51.961711-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: with salt.utils.files.fopen(sboot[0], "rb") as fd: 2020-12-07T15:44:51.961877-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/salt/utils/files.py", line 399, in fopen 2020-12-07T15:44:51.962044-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: f_handle = open(*args, **kwargs) # pylint: disable=resource-leakage 2020-12-07T15:44:51.962203-05:00 uyuni salt-master[2166]: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/sys/firmware/efi/vars/SecureBoot-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c/data' --------------- Len Ewen Systems Administrator 1 Information Technology University of Indianapolis (317) 788-3362 [image: UIndyIT.jpg] Confidentiality Notice: This communication and/or its content are for the sole use of the intended recipient, and may be privileged, confidential, or otherwise protected from disclosure by law.
