When providing a hierarchical output_directory value like
'transient/jenkins-slave', the VM would fail to build in the CreateDisk
step. The properly created output directory would not match the location
provided to CreateDisk, since datastorePath() did not properly split such
paths. Now this case works; tested hierarchical and singular
output_directory values.
Fixes the following vet report:
builder/vmware/common/step_shutdown_test.go:130: missing argument for Fatalf("%s"): format reads arg 1, have only 0 args
Change the default behavior from requesting a PTY when executing a
command with the ssh communicator to requesting a PTY only when
configured to do so.
Update the vmware builders to be fully backward compatible with the new
behavior.
We need to ensure the VMWare process has exited before attempting to run VMX file cleanup steps, otherwise VMWare may overwrite our changes. While Packer does its best to ensure VMWare has exited, there's still a race condition on some OSs between VMWare flushing the VMX and Packer updating it. The workaround is to artifically wait 5 seconds.
When using the VMX builder its possible for the source machine to have a floppy and/or CD-ROM mounted which gets cloned to the new VM Packer spins up, but have no Packer configuration for those devices. With this change we always attempt to remove the mounted devices regardless of the Packer configuration.
In order that something consuming an artifact can have access to extra
builder specific data add the State method which allows the caller to
ask for arbitary values by name.
Adds logic to ESXi driver VNC Address function to ignore listen
addresses that bind to localhost (127.0.0.1), this allows certain
default ports to be available on ESXi for VNC connections
When using the VMX builder its possible for the source machine to have a floppy configured which gets cloned to the new VM Packer spins up. When the new VM's Packer config doesn't have a floppy_files config entry, the Packer clean VMX step fails to remove the floppy disk from the new VM. This can cause build failures, for example with the vsphere post processor; generating errors like:
* Post-processor failed: Failed: exit status 1
Error: File (/home/teamcity/tmp/buildTmp/packer941120499) could not be found.
Opening the cloned VM's VMX file you can clearly see it has a floppy entry from the source machine's VMX file (exact same path) even though the Packer config contains no floppy_files entry.
