Description

Host creation ends up with error 500 caused by missing compute_attributes accessor on attended installations.

This problem extends to any host updates, as well as creations, via the hammer cli and it still exists in 1.4.1.

This makes the CLI effectively read-only... ;(
Is there no workaround?

Is this definitely on the API side? I noticed today (see #6342) that hammer always passes compute attributes to the API.

I think that's exactly the issue... hammer always passes compute_attributes during host operations. The problem is that if Unattended==False, then Foreman doesn't know what 'compute_attributes' is and fails any host-update operations.

Could a workaround be that if Unattended==False, Foreman still define 'compute_attributes', but just throw the values on the floor?

I'm getting this error in foreman 1.7 on CentOS 7. I receive the error using all of the following methods for updating a host:

- hammer host update
- curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -u admin:$password -k --fail --silent -X PUT -d '{"host": {"hostgroup_id": 1}}' "https://ops1.zone1.example.com/api/v2/hosts/ops1.zone1.example.com"
- python requests module

hammer debug output is:

[root@ops1 ~]# /usr/bin/hammer -d host update --hostgroup ops1.zone1.example.com --name ops1.zone1.example.com

James, your error from the server is "No such file or directory - true" which doesn't look like the same issue as reported here. You should probably check the server side logs for more info (/var/log/foreman/production.log) to figure out where it's coming from, and open a different bug report or thread on foreman-users for help.
