Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario sle-12-SP4-Server-DVD-s390x-allpatterns@zkvm fails in
consoletest_finish
not showing the desktop screen which we would expect there

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: Test suite works or fails on confirmed bug

Suggestions

On the video we can see that gnome session is there for second or two, but then it's black screen. So it can be that lock screen is broken, gnome crashes or there is an issue with setup.
Requires investigation.

Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build 0234

Expected result

Last good: 0233 (or more recent)

Problem

Seems to be reproducible since recently. Did we introduce a regression?

Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: latest

@zluo you can value test failures that are clearly reproducible as "high" at least by default.

For some reason we run "test -d /home/*/.local/share/xorg" in the test which returns 1 and therefore fails. Maybe this also explains why we can't see any X running? We just need to figure out why this check was added (didn't find it after a quick look).

Where did you see this? I doubt this is related. I can see some s390x tests that reach an X-session, e.g. https://openqa.suse.de/tests/1783986#step/consoletest_setup/1 so it can work in general.

fwiw:
in the video we see for one frame that there is a X server running with gnome

to check statistics, triggered 100 jobs over the weekend:

H1: journalctl shows that dhcp lease was released in yast2_lan, so could be that the re-request sometimes takes so long that the vnc connection is silently disconnected
H2: gdm crashed

100 triggered jobs over the weekend showed following results:

  • 76 fails in consoletest_finish
  • 22 passed this stage and failed in reboot_gnome
  • 1 incomplete
  • 1 fail in installation_overview
Actions #21

so we have 3 out of 4 fails, to crosscheck we have triggered 4 jobs with SP3 and 4 jobs with excluding the intermediate modules:

I'm out of ideas...
the only thing which I could try as workaround is to retry the switch to the x11 console...

I think we agreed that you do not want to work on this and therefore should be unassigned, right?

Fixed by PR: https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/os-autoinst-needles-sles/merge_requests/921.

The issue was because of blank screen appearing. New needle allows to call 'ensure_unlocked_desktop' which allows to go out from the screen lock.

at least in Build 0374 I cannot see any failing jobs on s390x in consoletest_finish. nevertheless, since it's sporadic, let's wait for one more build to get more statistics
great job anyway!
