Description

openqa workers on ip-172-25-5-39 fails with no clue on the obvious reason of the failure. This host is an aarch64 AWS A1 instance with 3 workers running on SLE15-SP1.

One occurrence of the failure: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1660849

For now I disabled the workers on this machine to avoid lots of test failures.

https://openqa.opensuse.org/admin/workers/270 looks like this is reproducible, right? Could you try to run a test locally with just isotovideo and a vars.json file?

We also have some other cases in #62420 regarding "we do not understand from logs what is going on".

Please also keep in mind that packages on SLE15-SP1 - if they are even up-to-date - are not properly tested and likely to have some problems.

Yes ,this is reproducable.

A manual call to isototvideo (from a regular user) fails the same way.

That's a step forward. I hope you understand that so far we heavily rely on the special environment where this happens because so far I am unaware of any way to reproduce the same issue elsewhere.

I think what could be improved from backend side though is the logging and also the tracking of subprocesses to improve what people can understand from the not so clear text flow in this section:

But again the main problem I see here is that you are using SLE15-SP1 which is unfortunately unsupported. Could you switch to openSUSE Leap 15.2 for the complete system or run the worker in container of either openSUSE Leap 15.2 or openSUSE Tumbleweed? As an alternative if you are interested in improving the support for SLE15-SP1 yourself then look into the unresolvables on https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/devel:openQA?arch_aarch64=1&blocked=1&broken=1&building=1&defaults=0&deleting=1&dispatching=1&failed=1&finished=1&locked=1&repo_SLE_15_SP1=1&scheduled=1&signing=1&succeeded=1&unresolvable=1

Unfortunately, this hardware is pre-installed with SLE15-SP1. I may try a zypper dup to Leap 15.2.
Anyway, I created https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/3777 to build again openQA for non-openSUSE targets.

Both is a good idea :)
