[Kea-users] Kea 2.3.3 Initial Install with PostgreSQL on Proxmox CT Ubuntu 22.04

[tech at chaoticreality.com]

Utilizing Ubuntu 22.10 with kea 2.2.0 I ran into the same error I was having
with the other instance. I finally discovered what the error was. It was the
password. I guess there are some characters that either the kea-admin does
not like or pgsql does not like.  I believe one of those might be an
exclamation point. The passwords I use are all random generated 12 +
character, and I did not think of that being a limitation. For example the
password I was previously trying to use was: K!Z.LU!.sN46 in this case the
error message became more meaningful as the ! was toward the beginning of
the string. So I was presented with more data to understand what was going
on

 

root at koronis:/# kea-admin db-init pgsql -u keadbuser -p K!Z.LU!.sN46 -n
isckea

-bash: !Z.LU!.sN46: event not found

root at koronis:/#

 

Changed the password to a different all numeric password and I have moved
past that piece.

Interesting, I took the information I was reviewing to mean 2.3.4 was the
current experimental-development release and 2.3.3 was stable for the 2.3.x
version. I did not realize anything in 2.3.x is currently considered
development / unstable. I based this understanding from the Cloudsmith repo
both the package listing tags, and the directed distribution setup which
directed me to 2.3.3 (unless I did something abosolutly incorrect, which is
possible.)

 

If I am understanding correctly you are advising to use the version that is
available directly in the Ubuntu apt repo for that specific version of
Ubuntu and not use the packages from Cloudsmith? 

 

Not necessarily; it's fine to use the 2.2.x packages distributed by the Kea
team via Cloudsmith, that's what I do :-)
