CentOS-Stream-8 cloud images not updated

Post by jaxklag » 2022/09/12 14:04:28

Hello,

I used to download CentOS-Stream 8 cloud images in qcow2 format at https://cloud.centos.org/centos/8-stream/x86_64/images/

At time of writing, traditionnal release is CentOS-Stream-8-x86_64-20220831 available at http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/8- ... os/x86_64/

Why is last release "CentOS-Stream-8-x86_64-20220831" for cloud images (EC2 / vagrant & GenericCloud (qcow2)) is not avaiable at https://cloud.centos.org/centos/8-stream/x86_64/images/ ?
It 's been almost 1 year (20220125) that cloud images haven't been updated.

It seems that image generation has been stopped for cloud images ...

Any information about that would be appreciated.

Regards,

Hello,

I see that image has been added yesterday.

Code: Select all

# CentOS-Stream-GenericCloud-8-20220913.0.x86_64.qcow2: 1554015744 bytes
SHA256 (CentOS-Stream-GenericCloud-8-20220913.0.x86_64.qcow2) = 8717251f8e4d2fe3e5032799caae89358c1ba68d65a16b5128a59ec6003aac1c
Is it related to my post or just a coincidence ?

What was the problem ?

What was the problem ?
Nobody had built them recently. Not sure if it was your post here or someone on the mailing list that sparked the rebuild.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
Use the FAQ Luke

Hello,

I'm facing again the same issue with last CentOS-Stream-8 image which release is now 20221005.

On cloud repository, last release is 20220913.0

Would it be possible to activate again automatic building of cloud images when a new centOS-Stream-8 image is generated ?

Regards,
