Hi,
I am trying to implement start_script functionality for a VM but I am facing some issues as listed below:
Opennebula: 5.10 (contextualization package is installed)
Issue: Start script is not being executed
Example CONTEXT:
CONTEXT=[
...
NETWORK="YES",
PASSWORD_BASE64="some-pass",
SET_HOSTNAME="some-name",
START_SCRIPT="sudo apt update && sudo apt install apache2 && sudo ufw allow 'Apache'",
TARGET="hda" ]
Issue: /mnt dir in the VM is empty, checked the /etc/one-context.d dir debugging in the net-97-start-script
and that’s why my start_script is not being executed because it doesnt exist here
My context file is available here as shown by Opennebula
So, how can I resolve this ? Is there any way that my VM can access this context file in hda ? Or is my approach is wrong ?
Regards

The context disk should be a CD-ROM device inside the VM. The context service mounts it, performs the operations then it is unmounted. Here is an example
[root@centos7-context-kvm-5-12-6-666cf-0 ~]# lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 60G 0 disk
└─sda1 8:1 0 60G 0 part /
sr0 11:0 1 366K 0 rom
[root@centos7-context-kvm-5-12-6-666cf-0 ~]# mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/
mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
[root@centos7-context-kvm-5-12-6-666cf-0 ~]# cat /mnt/context.sh

It’s OK that is not mounted on /mnt, you can check the context.sh which contains the variables pool fed to the contextualization service.
START_SCRIPT=“sudo apt update && sudo apt install apache2 && sudo ufw allow ‘Apache’”,
Also add -y to the apt commands in order to make them non-interactive and avoid CLI prompts

Hi @dclavijo , thank you for your time.
Now I have a better understanding of the situation.
I did mount and check the context.sh file and it’s ok.
Then I created a new VM with the START_SCRIPT missing -y flag but it still didn’t execute and then I checked the syslog and found the issue.
Apparently my VM’s dpkg was locked and now I am trying to resolve that issue somehow with the start script itself.
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?
I have no problem with or relating to OpenNebula now but with Ubuntu.
