There are two other obvious ways to implement the "packages don't start
elasticsearch" checks but when you work through them they aren't as nice
as the implementation of the checks that we use now. This just adds
documentation to that effect.
We don't want either the deb or rpm package to start elasticsearch as soon
as they install nor do we want the package to register elasticsearch to
start on restart. That action is reserved for the administrator. This adds
tests for that.
Closes#13122
To do this we:
1. All the rpm based distros we test support Java 8. We just ask to install
it.
2. There is a ppa that works for the Ubuntus. We just add that for them.
3. Debian Jessie has Java 8 in its backports. We just add that repository.
4. Debian Wheezy doesn't have Java 8 easily accessible so we drop it. We
could add it back with Orache Java 8 at a later date but that will take a
few more backflips and won't support things like vagrant-cachier.
This required a ton of rebuilding of vagrant boxes so it also fixes:
1. apt-get update is run too frequently
2. Lots of weird warning messages are spit out of apt-get
3. Switch from the chef provided based images to those provided by boxcutter.
The chef images has left vagrant atlas!
Closes#13366
This cleans up deb, rpm, systemd, and sysvinit tests:
1. Move skip_not_rpm, skip_not_dpkg, etc to the setup() methods for faster
runtime and cleaner code.
2. Removed lots of needless invocations of `run`
3. Created install_package for use in the systemd and sysvinit tests.
4. Removed lots of needless stderr to stdout redirects.
Closes#13075
Related to #13074
Virtualbox is the default virtualization provier for vagrant but folks
override that from time to time. If they do then the build will fail because
the boxes used by the build don't usually support non-virtualbox providers.
Closes#13217
Now we are using short names for artifactId (see #12879) so we don't need anymore to transform long names `elasticsearch-pluginname` to short names `pluginname` in ant script when we install a plugin.
Modify also convert-plugin-name
Clean up remaining plugins with old format
And fix vagrant tests
1. Move `clean_before_test` to the first test so its more explicit.
2. Move `skip_not_tar_gz` to setup because it was run first in every test.
3. Remove calls to `run` that only check the status. Its simpler to just
execute the command. Its better because std-out will be captured and replayed
on error.
4. Switch from `su` to `sudo` because `su` was breaking `bats`'s error
reporting.
In the bats test ES_CLEAN_BEFORE_TEST was used to clean the environment
before running the tests. Unfortunately the tests don't work unless you
specify it every time. This removes that option and always runs the clean.
This creates a module in qa called vagrant that can be run if you have
vagrant and virtualbox installed and will run the packaging tests in trusty
and centos-7.0. You can ask it to run tests in other linuxes. This is the full
list:
* precise aka Ubuntu 12.04
* trusty aka Ubuntu 14.04
* vivid aka Ubuntun 15.04
* wheezy aka Debian 7, the current debian oldstable distribution
* jessie aka Debian 8, the current debina stable distribution
* centos-6
* centos-7
* fedora-22
* oel-7
There is lots of documentation on how to do this in the TESTING.asciidoc.
