perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andrew Lake <>]

Hi,

This does look like a bug, I filed an issue here: https://github.com/perfsonar/project/issues/1278

There's some old code behind the GUI that does multiple conversions between various formats. That code needs to go away so it will either get fixed as part of that effort, or we'll look at a smaller fix for this issue. Thanks for reporting!

Thanks,

Andy

Hi!

I have recently installed perfsonar-toolkit-4.2.3-1.el7.noarch on a new
hardware with a minimal CentOS 7.

When I configure tests through the toolkit gui I get an 'Internal Server
Error' and see errors in the apache error log:

regular_testing.cgi: Config::General: Cannot create hashref from
<target> because there is, referer:
https://perfsonar.example.com/toolkit/auth/admin/tests.cgi
regular_testing.cgi: already a scalar option 'target' with value
'psmp-gn-bw-01-fra-de.geant.net', referer:
https://perfsonar.example.com/toolkit/auth/admin/tests.cgi
regular_testing.cgi line 38., referer:
https://perfsonar.example.com/toolkit/auth/admin/tests.cgi

It seems to be a problem if there are some hosts having ip4 and ipv6 and
some not. If I look at /var/lib/perfsonar/toolkit/gui-tasks.conf I see a
block like this:

<test>
     <parameters>
         tool   iperf3
         test_ipv4_ipv6   1
         type   bwctl
         duration   20
         packet_tos_bits   0
         window_size   0
     </parameters>
     target   psmp-gn-bw-01-fra-de.geant.net
     <target>
         address   lond-owamp.es.net
         <override_parameters>
             type   bwctl
             force_ipv4   1
         </override_parameters>
     </target>
     description   Throughput
     <schedule>
         type   regular_intervals
         interval   21600
     </schedule>
</test>

If the target   psmp-gn-bw-01-fra-de.geant.net statement is above the
following <target> block it fails. If it as after the block it works.

Bug?

Thanks,

Gerald
