Message 7732 - Posted: 15 Aug 2022, 13:31:16 UTC

Version 1.22 attempts to fix the errors like "failed to create /var/lib/condor directory: mkdir /var/lib/condor: permission denied" which are seen in some situations with certain apptainer versions.

The change is to mount only the current working directory (eg /var/lib/boinc/slots/0) into the container rather than the top level directory (eg /var).

I have also tested with Centos Stream 9 and it works fine with CVMFS and boinc installed from standard packages and apptainer from CVMFS: https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/result.php?resultid=3108671

sudo yum install boinc-client boinc-manager no success

download must be https://ecsft.cern.ch/dist/cvmfs/cvmfs-release/cvmfs-release-latest.noarch.rpm
my second fault for today, sorry.
cvmfs works now on CentOS9-VM!
Tomorrow a deeper look for installing boinc (PRE-Release 7.20.2 in CentOS9-VM)

I have already Atlas-Native running and would be happy to help testing here with apptainer.

At the moment, there is singulary installed on my Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS

Can you tell me please the exact instructions how I can install apptainer to the boxes?

Is Apptainer the same as CentOS..... ?

no success for boinc 7.20.2 (pre-release)

Link from RedHat Customer Portal CentOS9 stream epel repo:
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm

Boinc pre-release is now installed on one Threadripper 3995wx,
but project /lhc@home or lhc@home-dev are not reached.

cvmfs on both Threadripper 3995wx now active in CentOS9-VM.
First -native from Production is now running:
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/show_host_detail.php?hostid=10806627

Now -dev integrated:
https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/show_host_detail.php?hostid=4689
But only one Cpu for this CentOs9-VM.
Have to wait for the ending -native from production.

Hi Yeti,

Apptainer from CVMFS works on Ubuntu, at least on one of my machines with Ubuntu 21.10. So you should not have to install anything locally, just let the tasks use the version from CVMFS. The fallback to local singularity is only in case apptainer from CVMFS does not work.

Have identical epel-release downloads.
One CentOS9-VM have Boinc pre-release 7.20.2 installed,
the other CentOS9-VM doesn't install it?

So far, I don't get any Atlas-WU.

BOINC-Client is 7.16.6, is this modern enough or do I need 7.20.x ?

Boinc is ok, but there are only small numbers of -native-Tasks.
Seeing also no new tasks.

Have made a test with CentOS9-VM and NO Singularity installed in production.

After installing singularity it works now.

Ok, this is only a test with the production.
This new Version in -dev running well, with or without installing of singularity in the CentOS9-VM.

Thanks, so this confirms that the changes in 1.22 fix the errors seen in production. I will try to deploy this to production today.

It looks like there are a lot of failures with this version that were not picked up in testing so I reverted it in production and will try to debug here.

On one of my own hosts I have a mix of success (https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=363399068) and failed (https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=363399242) tasks.

The change in bind mounts seems to make some tmp directories read-only giving errors like:

Failed to execute payload:mktemp: failed to create file via template '/tmp/asetup_XXXXXX.sh': Read-only file system
