Issue with setting up eth0 with static ip address
dennym opened this issue · 9 comments
I gave Hypriot-1.12.2 and run today and configured cloud-init config and everything got flashed and initialized correctly with your provided flash tool.
Unfortunately the static ip address for eth0 does and won't work. I tried the example from https://github.com/hypriot/flash/tree/master/sample/static.yml .
write_files:
- content: |
persistent
slaac private
interface eth0
static ip_address=192.168.0.31/24
static routers=192.168.0.1
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.1 8.8.8.8
path: /etc/dhcpcd.conf
After the PIs are up and running I checked via ssh if the file exists and /etc/dhcpcd.conf exists with the mentioned content. Since it wasn't applied to the network I though about restarting the service with sudo service dhcpcd restart but this service is masked and can't be actually used. As far I am aware if something is masked its unused and dead. Since the example are quite old I guess a lot of stuff changed since then. Is there another approach for this?

In the root of your SD card, there is a file called network-config
this is where you set the settings that get used during cloud-config
This is what is in mine, and this works:
version: 1
config:
- type: physical
name: eth0
subnets:
- type: static
address: 192.168.1.10/24
gateway: 192.168.1.1
- type: nameserver
address:
- 192.168.1.1

@p-hagen-Signalfx sorry, not a lot of help, people are using the flash installer and following the instructions to edit the yml file from a supplied example. So there is something broken with the config setup.
Hypriot-1.12.2
Same for Hypriot-1.12.3
So @dennym and @rbartoli I have the same problem against Hypriot-1.12.3. I used an older 2.4.0 of Flash, not the latest 2.7.0. I am not sure if that will help but I will try to reflash after updating Flash.
So @dennym and @rbartoli I updated the flash tool to 2.7.0 and same same.
As per @dennym my /etc/dhcpcd.conf is set up to the static IP passed to the flash tool. But I get DHCP assigned IP and not the static IP?!
However using the suggested solution by @dennym at seems to fix the static IP but I get the problem:
$ docker-compose up
Pulling mybroker (emqx/emqx:v3.2.7)...
ERROR: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: dial tcp: lookup registry-1.docker.io on [::1]:53: read udp [::1]:38188->[::1]:53: read: connection refused
The file to create per the guidance suggested by @dennym was create and edit:
/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/95-debian-network-config.cfg
The "correct" file to create for Hypriot, it appears, might be the one cited in /etc/network/interfaces.d/50-cloud-init.cfg:
# This file is generated from information provided by
# the datasource. Changes to it will not persist across an instance.
# To disable cloud-init's network configuration capabilities, write a file
# /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg with the following:
# network: {config: disabled}
But, I found:
-
- Creating and editing /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg per guidance in /etc/network/interfaces.d/50-cloud-init.cfg, then
-
- Updating /etc/network/interfaces.d/50-cloud-init.cfg with static IP
Still gives me:
$ docker-compose up
Pulling mybroker (emqx/emqx:v3.2.7)...
ERROR: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: dial tcp: lookup registry-1.docker.io on [::1]:53: read udp [::1]:38188->[::1]:53: read: connection refused
So "fixes" for the problem for Hyprio 1.12.3 static IP breaks something else.
As far as I can tell the lates version of Hyprio introduced a change on how network is set following the cloud-init best practice. in short at boot it reads the network-config that you can find in the root folder and applies it content to your system. You need to edit this before you boot the Pi for the firs time.
Now, if you change the content with the above example he system will set a static ip address with the info for MY network, applied for eth0, and it allows me to use docker-compose up without any problems.
$ docker-compose up

You must change it to match your own network configuration for it to work, but using network-config to set your systems network before boot seems the way forward

Affirmative @p-Hagen-Signalfx. You are correct. The setup examples are out of date. Well done improving your explanation!
@Bazmundi Perhaps this solution with flash helps you on the related issue
