Install FUSE: Networking dead in the water [message #15080]

Hello everyone (again)

You must be getting tired of my endless requests for help Smile

For another customer, I want to install FUSE/sshfs. For various reasons of my own making, it was a tough install but all that is now resolved.
I did remember to add disable-kernel-module to my uses and I saw configure add --disable-kernel-module as a flag when FUSE was compiled. I am running...

ve_base # uname -a
Linux ve_base 2.6.18-028stab035 #1 SMP Tue Jul 10 12:59:23 BST 2007 x86_64 Dual Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 280 AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

The instance could be pinged and could ping the outside world before the FUSE and sshfs install. Now ping reports

ve_base # vzctl enter 503
entered into VE 503
ebs / # ping 192.168.1.2
connect: Network is unreachable
ebs / # ifconfig -a
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          LOOPBACK  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

venet0    Link encap:UNSPEC  HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
          BROADCAST POINTOPOINT NOARP  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

all other instances can still see the network.

I noticed that during the emerge of FUSE, it pulled back the 2.6.20 kernel against which to compile glib. This might be a red herring, but I can't see how using 2.6.20 libs to talk to a 2.6.18 kernel is going to be too helpful.

I will be very grateful for any constructive suggestions as it is holding me back from implementing a major upgrade.

Best Regards, and thanks,

Paul.

does VE restart help bringing networking bringing back?
I guess something happened with routes, but not sure how FUSE could do it Smile

Hi Kirill,

Thanks for responding,

Nope. Interestingly the instance take a *lot* longer to shut down now.

ve_base ~ # time vzctl stop 503

VE was stopped
VE is unmounted

I installed syslog-ng in the hope it might help nail down where lies the problem. Here is the entire log (Hey! it's a young system Smile

Me neither - but it seemed to install/upgrade a whole lot of stuff. Does networking use any of the routines in glib?

Hello,

So as far as I understand the current problem is the following: you have the VE which can't ping certain hosts? So, let's try to solve this particular problem, without taking attention on FUSe Wink

Can you post here the output of the following command on HN and in VE:

# ip a l
# ip r l
# sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward
# iptables -L -nv
# iptables -t NAT -L -nv

Thanks you,
Vasily

Hi Vasily,

Thanks for trying to help.

I have cerated a new instance and I am just bringing the entire gentoo instance up to date with an

emerge -DNeva world

. It has 111 packages to retrieve and build so it may be a while Smile

When it's done, I'll run the commands.

I've been talking to a colleague and we think that it may not be FUSE - it might be the installation of sshfs. This opens the possibility of still using FUSE with another fs module, so I am going to install FUSE alone and see if I still have networking.

I now suspect it has nothing to do with OpenVZ, whereas earlier I had no idea.

I'll post when I have results.

Thanks again

Best Regards, Paul.

Hi Vasily,

Just keeping you up to date, you can see my Gentoo post - which refers to OpenVz here.

Best Regards, Paul.
