3.21.0 (2022-09-13)#

Deprecations and Removals#

  • Remove logic to add the repo ppa:directhex/mock-dnf on Ubuntu 20.04 and earlier when pulp-rpm is being installed. The PPA was only ever made available for Ubuntu 16.04, and the installer definitely will not support such an old version of Ubuntu now. Note that there is no known way to install pulp-rpm on Ubuntu 20.04 or 18.04, but it installs on Ubuntu 22.04. #1366

3.20.5 (2022-09-06)#

Devel#

  • Fix source-dynamic CI failing to install community.docker on ansible 2.9 with python3. #1281
  • Vagrant: Drop support for cloud backends other than google in order to fix compatibility with latest forklift. #1296

3.20.1 (2022-07-21)#

Deprecations and Removals#

  • Support for upgrading from installs prior to pulp_installer 3.6.1 (Aug 2020) has been partially removed. To upgrade from them successfully, run chgrp pulp /var/lib/pulp -R before running the installer. This removal fixes a sporadic error with the task "pulp_common : Set group on all files in '/var/lib/pulp'" when run against an NFS /var/lib/pulp (by removing that task.) #1238
  • The variable pulp_cache_dir has been removed. Instead of setting both pulp_cache_dir and pulp_settings.working_directory to change this directory's location, you know only have to set pulp_settings.working_directory. The ability to set it has also been fixed. #1252

Improved Documentation#

  • Added documentation for uninstalling Pulp. #1000
  • Added documentation for the "artifacts missing checksum" error. #1093

3.19.4 (2022-06-13)#

Bugfixes#

  • Only check the hosts running pulp_database_config to see if they have the database fields encryption key. Checking all hosts in the ansible playbook run was checking stray hosts already running a separate pulp instance, and checking hosts (such as network devices) that cannot run the stat module, thus proeducing an error. #1133

Improved Documentation#

  • Refine markups and fix some typos. #1163

Misc#

3.19.3 (2022-06-08)#

Features#

Bugfixes#

  • Fix subject_alt_name prefix when generating a cert. #1051
  • When installing the galaxy-ng plugin from source, only unlock its version requirements if the "main" branch is used, or if the branch (git_revision) is unspecified. #1073
  • Fix occassional error on Run pip-compile to check pulpcore/plugin compatibility with error message ImportError: cannot import name 'BAR_TYPES' from 'pip._internal.cli.progress_bars'. #1100
  • Fix the error "no test named 'equalto'" on the task "pulp_database_config : Check if any hosts already have the database fields encryption key" when running on EL7 RPM-installed Ansible (or any python distribution with "jinja2" prior to version 2.8). #1105
  • Fix 2 copies of webserver snippets breaking nginx and possibly apache. The 2nd copy existed on upgrades, and was a symlink. It is now deleted. #1119
  • Fix webserver snippets not getting installed when pulp_database_config runs on EL7. #1129
  • Fix failure when pulp_database_config_host is set. It failed in the task "pulp_database_config : Fail if some hosts in the play have the key, but pulp_database_config_host does not". #1130

  • Fix being unable to install openssl-devel on Fedora 36 when pulp-rpm is being installed. #1145

Improved Documentation#

  • Updates and multiple fixes to clustering section in the docs. Includes renaming it from "Deployment Scenarios" to "Clustering". #1116

Devel#

3.19.2 (2022-05-16)#

Features#

  • Make the pulp_webserver role no longer install pulp (no longer depend on pulp_common), and instead obtain the webserver snippets from the host that runs pulp_database_config. #1007

  • When in pip install mode, fix SELinux accidentally blocking the pulp appplication from doing certain tasks. This was due to the pulp application during the install (before it completes) getting accidentally labeled as init_t. #1023
  • Fix SELinux policies not taking effect early enough during certain cluster installs (e.g., when pulp_workers is run on a host with pulp_database_config being run on it.) #1026
  • On EL7 & EL8, do not add the pulpcore RPM repository to systems when pulp_install_source=="pip". #1046

Bugfixes#

  • Added force_handlers: True in every Playbook in order to flush handlers even if some tasks fail. Because we decided that this change will leave the system in a better more correct state if something went wrong. #829

Bugfixes#

  • Fixed a problem in pulp_installer 3.17.0 that it would only install pulpcore 3.17.0 rather than the latest 3.17.z micro release. pulp_installer 3.17.0 users can work around by setting the variable pulpcore_version: 3.17 #862

3.17.1 (2022-02-01)#

Features#

  • Setting explicit permissions to files we modify or copy by installation process. Default is world readable (644 or 755). #800

  • Fix pulp_installer failing to install rubygems on Debian 11 when using Ansible's main branch. #833
  • Fix webservers symlinks #834
  • Fix pulp_installer failing on "pulp_common: Run pip-compile to check pulpcore/plugin compatibility" on most distros. This occurs with pip 22.0 (just released) and pip-tools 6.4.0 (several months old and incompatible), so we are fixing it by limiting pip to 21 for now. #858
  • Fixed a problem in pulp_installer 3.17.0 that it would only install pulpcore 3.17.0 rather than the latest 3.17.z micro release. pulp_installer 3.17.0 users can work around by setting the variable pulpcore_version: 3.17 #862

Deprecations and Removals#

  • No longer support upgrading from packages prior to 3.6. Instead, users should download and run pulp_installer 3.14 with a 3.14 rpm repo, then upgrade to the current version. #814
  • Ansible 2.9 and Python 2.7 are now further deprecated. We observed a bug whereby a pip_package_info task in the playbook fails after running the task include_role: pulp_all_services. The only fix for this bug is to upgrade to a known working and tested configuration like Python 3 and ansible-base 2.10+. #836
  • CentOS 8 is now EOL, and thus Pulp no longer formally supports it. Pulp now only tests fresh installs with CentOS Stream 8, and with upgrades from CentOS 8 to CentOS Stream 8 (see migration instructions here https://centos.org/centos-stream/). #860

Devel#

  • The installer is now tested against installing Pulp 3.16 RPM packages from theforeman.org . #811

3.17.0 (2021-12-14)

Features#

  • Add Fedora 35 support #799
  • Setting explicit permissions to files we modify or copy by installation process. Default is world readable (644 or 755). #800
  • Update SELinux policies to 1.2.7. Adds support for Pulp 3 connecting to remote repos through Squid and other web proxies. #9450

Bugfixes#

  • Fix pulp_common : Collect static content sporadically failing when using a shared filesystem (.e.g, NFS) for /var/lib/pulp by running it sequentially across multiple Pulp nodes. #790
  • Update packages mode support for Pulp 3.15 by changing the default package name prefix (pulp_pkg_name_prefix) from python3- to tfm-pulpcore-python3-. #795
  • When installing from packages, fix pulpcore getting upgraded prematurely during "pulp_common : Install the Pulp undeclared yum package dependencies" by no longer installing pulpcore-selinux there. pulpcore-selinux will be installed as a declared dependency of pulpcore. #798
  • Fixed pulp_installer failing when variables like pulp_user_home are set by specifying them in /etc/pulp/settings.py #801
  • When installing in "packages" mode on EL7, workaround upgrading RPM packages by ignoring the latest libcomps. (Fixes error with upgrading python2-libcomps.) #809
  • When installing in "packages" mode on EL8, fix upgrading from RPMs prior to 3.8 by excluding the no-longer-needed dependency python3-drf-yasg from upgrade. #810

Deprecations and Removals#

  • Removed the use_new_worker_type from dev-playbook example. And adjusted the resource-manager test in the health checks. #9158

Devel#

  • Add SELinux support for the pulp-2to3-migration plugin by updating pulpcore-selinux (SELinux policies) to 1.2.6 #9468

Deprecations and Removals#

  • pulp_version variable has been replaced with pulpcore_version. #8847
  • Ensure resource manager is not started for pulpcore >= 3.16 #9386

Devel#

Bugfixes#

  • Fix subject_alt_name prefix when generating a cert. #1051
  • When installing the galaxy-ng plugin from source, only unlock its version requirements if the "main" branch is used, or if the branch (git_revision) is unspecified. #1073
  • pulp_database_config: Accomodate users having inventory hosts that cannot run sudo. #1085
  • Fix occassional error on Run pip-compile to check pulpcore/plugin compatibility with error message ImportError: cannot import name 'BAR_TYPES' from 'pip._internal.cli.progress_bars'. #1100

Devel#

  • Vagrant no longer builds and installs the pulp.pulp_installer collection, but instead runs the roles out of the pulp_installer folder. To continue running using vagrant environments, run rm -rf ~/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/pulp/. #1098

3.15.7 (2022-05-09)#

Bugfixes#

  • Fix the database fields key being generated as non-identical across multiple hosts, which in turn broke multiple runtime actions (for clustered setups with multiple hosts) such as syncing remotes for galaxy_ng. Also install the key on worker hosts. Introduces the advanced variable pulp_database_config_host to set which host will have its key copied to all the others (otherwise, random.) #964

3.15.4-1 (2022-03-03)#

Bugfixes#

  • When in packages mode, install the package with the SELinux policies via an ansible task, rather than assuming it is a dependency (which is no longer the case.) The variable pulp_pkg_selinux_name was introduced to specify the name. Also introduce the variable pulp_install_selinux_policies to enable or disable installing the SELinux policies, regardless of whether in packages mode or pip mode. #916

Devel#

  • Ensure the requirements.in points to proper value fo the plugin when git_url is specified. Given this is run before the plugins is actually clone, source_dir repo is not yet available at that stage. #9141

Features#

  • Add support for Fedora 33. #7800
  • Introduce the new variable pulp_firewalld_zone so that users can manually specify the firewalld zone to open up to Pulp traffic. #8107

Bugfixes#

  • When upgrading from distro packages (pulp_install_source==packages & pulp_pkg_upgrade_all==true), pulp_installer will now configure dnf (CentOS/RHEL 8) to permit upgrading them to newer versions that are not necessarily the latest (dnf option best=false). This addresses the issue of python3-rq from EPEL8 being too new for Pulp, and thus upgrades failing with a depsolve error on the task "pulp_common : Upgrade all existing installed Pulp packages". #8042

3.9.0-1 (2020-12-17)#

Bugfixes#

  • Fixed inability to install on CentOS 8.3 or CentOS Stream due to the newly renamed "powertools" repo (formerly "PowerTools") not being enabled by the installer. #7996

Misc#

3.8.0 (2020-10-21)#

Features#

  • Compile and install the pulpcore-selinux policy on CentOS/RHEL/Fedora. #7574
  • When installing from distro packages (pulp_install_source==packages), from a repo (pulp_pkg_repo), and upgrading them (pulp_pkg_upgrade_all==true), pulp_installer will now upgrade all the packages from the repo. This addresses any incorrect dependency declarations in the repo, which would cause pulp_installer to fail on collectstatic. #7646
  • Allow one to customize webserver ports pulp will be listening on via pulp_webserver_http_port (defaults to 80) and pulp_webserver_https_port (defaults to 443). #7662
  • Start rq & gunicorn from the bash wrapper scripts provided by newer pulpcore 3.7 RPM packages, /usr/libexec/pulpcore/{rq,gunicorn}. These scripts enable pulp processes to transitioning to the Pulp SELinux context, rather than the generic rq/gunicorn context. #7667

Deprecations and Removals#

  • pulp_installer will no longer set SELinux to enabled, permissive and enforcing (casually referred to as "disabled") on CentOS/RHEL/Fedora. #7573
  • pulp_installer no longer supports installing from older RPM packages that lack the wrapper scripts /usr/libexec/pulpcore/{rq,gunicorn}. #7667

  • If you upgrade from older pulpcore to pulpcore 3.7 from RPMs, pulp_common: Collect static content may fail due to dynaconf being too old (3.0.0rc1 is older than 3.0.0 final). If this happens, you can now workaround it by setting pulp_pkg_upgrade_all: true (or upgrading the RPM "python3-dynaconf"). #9181

Bugfixes#

  • Changed the mechanism to only set the admin password on first installation. Removed the depedency of pulp_health_check on the variable pulp_default_admin_password. #7499

Devel#

  • pulp_devel role now installs distro-specific packages in parallel, for better performance when run against hosts running multiple distros (like our molecule CI). #7516
  • pulp_installer's CI/molecule "packages mode" tests now test a new Foreman/Katello project URL for RPM packages. Has pulpcore 3.6 rather than 3.4. #7517

3.6.3-1 (2020-09-15)#

Bugfixes#

  • Changed pulp users main group from 'users' to '{{ pulp_group }}'. #7173
  • Fix auth migrations being run for galaxy_ng. Due to code removal, the pulp_default_admin_password is now set whenever pulpcore is 1st installed, updated/upgraded, or when pulp_upgraded_manually==true. #7493
  • Fix upgrades from pulpcore 3.0 failing at collectstatic by upgrading dynaconf to at least 3.1.1rc2. #7503

Devel#

  • Install pulp-rpm in the RPM package molecule / CI tests. (In addition to pulp-file.) #7455
  • Molecule & pulp_installer CI no longer update the CentOS 8 container to CentOS Stream. (They were doing it always, since 8.2 released by accident.) #7456
  • CI: Do not install dnf on CentOS 7. So as to actually test yum (yum 3), like most users use. #7473

3.6.5 (2020-11-11)#

This new version of pulp_installer only differs in that it installs the new version 3.6.5.post2 of pulpcore.

  • Accept unix socket on pulp_health_check #7349
  • Fix failure on task "pulp_common: Make /var/lib/pulp world executable" by creating the directory (and giving it owner user permissions as well). Occurs when specifying an existing user account as pulp_user but not having /var/lib/pulp (pulp_user_home) already present. pulplift would trigger this. #7359

Deprecations and Removals#

  • The default location for Pulp Webserver's TLS certificates was changed from /etc/pulp to /etc/pulp/certs/ . Users that wish to continue using their current certificate and key must run sudo mv -t /etc/pulp/certs/ /etc/pulp/pulp_webserver.{key,crt} before upgrading / running the new pulp_installer version. Alternatively, users can control the directory with the variable pulp_certs_dir, which was renamed from pulp_webserver_tls_folder. pulp_certs_dir now also controls where the keys for API authentication tokens are installed as well. #7328

3.6.0 (2020-08-13)#

Features#

  • Allow an installer user to configure Pulp to run with TLS enabled using custom provided certificates. #6845
  • Misc webserver changes so that Let's Encrypt and other ACME protocol CAs can be used via 3rd-party ansible roles, primarily for HTTP-01 verification. See docs/letsencrypt.md for a full HTTP-01 example playbook and explanation. #6846
  • Allow an installer user to configure Pulp to run with TLS enabled using self-signed certificates. #6847
  • A key for token authentication is installed from either a specified file or a newly generated one. #7098
  • Enable resource accounting via systemd. #7192
  • Verify if Pulp Services are up & listening #7259

Bugfixes#

  • Fix the tasks "Install pulpcore via PyPI" & "Install Pulp plugins via PyPI" always reporting CHANGED when pip 20.2 is installed. #7254
  • Fix services not starting due to pulp_installer putting the wrong path to binaries like gunicorn in systemd unit files. Only occured when installing in packages mode. #7255
  • Fix pulp_installer failing on the task "pulp_common: Add pulpcore RPM repositories" when installing in packages mode, and when ansible_user is not root. #7275
  • Fix pulp_installer failing on task "pulp_webserver : Set httpd_can_network_connect flag on and keep it persistent across reboots" on hosts with SELinux enabled (enforcing/permissive) by installing the SELinux python RPM dependencies. #7276

Deprecations and Removals#

  • Remove the systemd sandboxing features from the pulpcore-api systemd unit file. This was preventing pulpcore-api from starting on containers running systemd (due to namespace capabilities), such as our molecule tests & CI. #6586
  • Installations will have https enabled by default. Users need to configure their CONTENT_ORIGIN accordingly. #6845

Misc#

Devel#

  • Fix molecule (CI or local) often failing to test more than 1 OS a time. #7263
  • Add verification that Pulp is running at the end of pulp_installer CI, via inspec. #7272

3.5.0 (2020-07-09)#

Breaking Change#

  • New list of Ansible roles to run - blog post

Features#

  • Add the ability to install Pulp from Linux distro (RPM) packages. #6793
  • Let users specify an RPM repo containing Pulp. Introduces the new variable: pulp_pkg_repo #6794
  • Add variables so users can specify the names of each RPM package to install (pulp_pkg_pulpcore_name & pulp_install_plugins's pkg_name) or to just override the prefix (pulp_pkg_name_prefix). #6795
  • Merging the pulp_rpm_prerequisites role into pulp_installer #6799
  • Allow user to specify redis package and service name. #6895
  • Allow one to specify a pulp_ld_library_path when wanted #6913
  • Unify the use of pulp_content_bind and pulp_api_bind across all network facing role. this inherently allow one to rely on Unix Domain Socket (UDS) if wanted based on the deployment scenario. #6921
  • Allow Nginx to listen for both IPv4 and IPv6 connections. #6923
  • Allow a user to use Unix Domain Socket (UDS) for the redis server. #6931
  • Set httpd_can_network_connect SELinux boolean when needed. #6998
  • Provide a single "pulp_all_services" role that users can specify instead of the current role list, and refactor the underlying roles and their dependency tree. #7005
  • Split the pulp_database role into pulp_database (installs postgres database) and pulp_database_config (configures Pulp database) for the sake of proper design. pulp_database no longer depends on pulp_common, so it can now be run against a separate database server without Pulp installed. #7037
  • Provide the "pulp_services" role that users can specify to install all of Pulp's first-party services, but not its third-party services (database server, redis server & webserver.) #7038

Bugfixes#

  • Fix webserver snippets not being installed when pulp_install_dir is changed from the default value. #6956
  • Fix documentation about certain variables being required, and error early with clear error messages if they are unset or set to empty strings. #6958
  • Add new RHUI repo name rhel-7-server-rhui-optional-rpms in rhel7_optional_repo. #6960
  • Fix apache installation #7010
  • Fix issue whereby for certain users, the firewall may not be configured. Also fix an issue whereby for certain pulp_devel role users, the Galaxy NG WebUI may not be built. #7062

Improved Documentation#

  • Adding changelog to readthedocs site #7033
  • Removing outdated reference to unavailablity of Roles on Ansible Galaxy. #7055

Deprecations and Removals#

  • The pulp_api_host (127.0.0.1) and pulp_api_port (24817) have been removed and replaced by pulp_api_bind (127.0.0.1:24817). Same happened for pulp_content_host and pulp_content_port in favor of pulp_content_bind. #6921
  • Removed pulp_redis dependency from pulp_workers and pulp_resource_manager. Users need to adjust their playbook to run the pulp_redis role. #6975
  • pulp_database, which is now separate from pulp_database_config, no longer understands the variable pulp_install_db. Installing the postgres database server is now controlled by whether or not pulp_database is in the role list, and pulp_database_config must be in the list. #7037
  • Removed the task to add a redis PPA on all Ubuntu releases. Existing Ubuntu Pulp installations will still have the PPA enabled. #7063

Misc#

Devel#

  • For developers, enable source-checkout of a plugin without also having a source checkout of pulpcore #6910
  • Adding dev type changelog #7034

3.4.1 (2020-06-03)#

Bugfixes#

  • Ensure that pip-tools is at least 5.2.0, so that the pre-flight (compatibility) check does not error on the attribute "editable". #6864

Improved Documentation#

  • Document how to install from galaxy #6836
  • Replaced root README.md with a short README.md pointing users to the docs site #6843
  • Added a contributing guide, and moved testing out of the home page to it. #6862
  • Added a documentation section on Recommended Versioning Workflows #6874
  • Document how to file an issue #6879

3.4.0 (2020-05-27)#

Features#

  • Make gunicorn --workers parameter configurable #6727

Bugfixes#

  • Enforce new lines when listing plugins on requirements.in #6697
  • Fixed CodeReady repo name for RHEL8 AWS installations #6805

Improved Documentation#

  • Document the conflict between version and upgrade when configuring plugins #6669
  • Documented system requirements for ansible when using the installer. #6725

Deprecations and Removals#

  • Fitting directories into collection structure #6458
  • Renaming roles to use underscores rather than dashes #6663
  • Replaced pulp_workers dictionary variable with the pulp_workers integer variable. pulp_workers is now simply the number of workers. #6774

3.3.1 (2020-05-08)#

Features#

  • Introduced a CentOS version check #6102
  • Replaced nginx/apache alias with proxying to whitenoise #6561
  • Created a directory for Pulp nginx snippets #6594

Bugfixes#

  • Fixed: pulp_installer devel role failing on CentOS 8 Stream (pre-8.2) with a module metadata error for the dependency criu. #6509
  • Fixed several issues that cause the pre-flight check to not enforce (not terminating the install early on), which would lead to the instaler erroring at collectstatic, and leave users with a broken pulp installation. #6623
  • Fixed the pulpcore/plugin compatibility check not enforcing on upgrades from Pulp prior to 3.2.0, potentially resulting in a failure on collectstatic. #6642
  • Fixed the pulpcore/plugin compatibility check accidentally enforcing on upgrades when plugins have their upgrade variable specified, and the latest version of the plugin actually is compatible. #6643
  • Fixed the pulpcore/plugin compatibility check not enforcing on upgrades when some currently installed plugins are not specified by the user in pulp_install_plugins. #6644
  • Fixed the pulpcore/plugin compatibility check getting not enforcing when it needs the prereq roles applied to evaluate compatibility. It now runs before (and if necessary, after) the prereq roles. #6645
  • Fixed pre-flight check producing an error (and accidentally enforcing) when a package is installed system-wide at a version that is not available on PyPI. This issue was never present on the previous release, only on the develoment branch. #6689
  • Fixed pre-flight check producing an error (and accidentally enforcing) when trying & failing to build certain packages from PyPI that are actually available as a system-wide (RPM/deb-installed) package in the virtualenv. This issue was never present on the previous release, only on the develoment branch. #6690

Deprecations and Removals#

  • Removed the pulp_webserver_static_dir option. This fixes a bug where installations served content they should not. #6601
