[pve-devel] cfs-locked 'authkey' operation: pve cluster filesystem not online

[pve-devel] cfs-locked 'authkey' operation: pve cluster filesystem not online

[wb]

Hello to all.

I have the plan to implement the SSO authentication feature with the SAML protocol.
However, I have an error that prevents me from validating the authentication process.
It is about the locks.
The first step is to store the request_saml_id. If I try to create a file by your libraries, I get an 500 error with msg:
error during cfs-locked \'file-request_tmp\' operation: pve cluster filesystem not online /etc/pve/priv/lock.
https://github.com/jbsky/proxmox-saml2-auth/commit/d75dc621aae719c8fdd251859af9641cda0e526b
Ok, I can make a temp workaround.

2nd step :
When I try to create a ticket with the function create_ticket in package PVE::API2::AccessControl;
I've got this error :
authentication failure; rhost=127.0.0.1 user=admin@DOM msg=error during cfs-locked 'authkey' operation: pve cluster filesystem not online /etc/pve/priv/lock
src : https://github.com/jbsky/proxmox-saml2-auth/commit/93b02727d2e172968c14c4ce3a7c27e8d5c0feb0

I have really bad luck with these locks!
Can you help me to understand the prerequisites to make the lock work?


If you want init a redirect to an identity provider(IdP, ex: Keycloak), use this url :
https://pve/api2/html/access/saml?realm=DOM

After an authentication side IdP, the IdP post to pve at https://pve/api2/html/access/saml.


I'm sorry to work on a separate repository, it's because I don't know your components very well.

I would be grateful if you could tell me how to debug these locks.

Thanking you in advance, 

Sincerely,

Julien BLAIS

Your cluster fs is not working (pmxcfs). See you run on a broken installation.

Again, the pmxcfs is not online.

You need a working PVE installation before doing any API calls...
