Hey Phil,

I think we were able to recreate this issue. Seems to be selinux related. On the toolkit, it does the right selinux config so this is not an issue, but doesn't seem to be happening on perfsonar-archive. It was previously working so not sure what changed. You can verify by disabling selinux with `setenforce 0` and visiting the opensearch URL. Obviously not the solution since we want it working with selinux enabled, but a way to verify that is indeed the issue you are encountering. I created a ticket here and we will try to get this fixed: https://github.com/perfsonar/archive/issues/14

Thanks,

Andy

I've tried to use the Centos Archive bundle several (ok, many) times.
I've never gotten it to work.

Please provide any suggestions to get past this bump.

Thanks,

Here are reproducible steps to my issue:

Start with a fresh Centos 7 install and update it.

yum install epel-release -y
yum install
http://software.internet2.edu/rpms/el7/x86_64/latest/packages/perfsonar-repo-0.11-1.noarch.rpm
-y
yum clean all

yum install perfsonar-archive

systemctl status opensearch

● opensearch.service - OpenSearch
    Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/opensearch.service; enabled;
vendor preset: disabled)
    Active: active (running) since Wed 2023-05-31 09:01:23 PDT; 35s ago

nmap of Centos Archive host:

$ nmap -Pn archvier (used -Pn at nmap's suggestion, otherwise it wasn't
able to scan the host)
Starting Nmap 7.93 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2023-05-31 08:53 PDT
Nmap scan report for archive (192.168.0.19)
...
PORT   STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh

Manually open the http and https ports with firewalld.

The Grafana Data Source plugin gives this error to 'http(or
s)://archive.ufixu.com/opensearch' use in the URL line;

OpenSearch error: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head> <title>503 Service Unavailable</title> </head><body>
<h1>Service Unavailable</h1> <p>The server is temporarily unable to
service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems.
Please try again later.</p> </body></html>

I've had toolkits pointed at the archive host but I don't know how to
determine if any data was collected nor was any seen in Grafana.

-----
Switching to the use of the Debian bundle on Ubuntu20, things proceed
much smoother.

systemctl status opensearch

● opensearch.service - OpenSearch
      Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/opensearch.service; enabled;
vendor pr>
      Active: active (running) since Wed 2023-05-31 01:03:34 UTC; 14h ago

nmap of archive host (no need for the -Pn option to scan the host)

$ nmap archive
Starting Nmap 7.93 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2023-05-31 08:34 PDT
Nmap scan report for archive (192.168.1.218)
...
PORT    STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh
80/tcp open http
443/tcp open https

The Grafana Data Source plugin is happy with
'https://archive.ufixu.com/opensearch' and the archive tool is able to
collect data and show in Grafana.
