PR: Issue 394

[denmat]

When using Vagrant and Docker the Salt provisioner would fail as
Upstart is not running (and will most likely never be).

The easiest way to fix this is to get Docker to drop a file onto the
the filesystem (/tmp/disable_salt_checks) and then disable the service
checks from that.

Then to make it clear and optional from the command line I thought of
adding the -d argument option to do the same thing. If either of these
are present a warning message appears in the stdout.

For a Dockerfile you would add:
RUN touch /tmp/disable_salt_checks

To run from the command line you would do:
$ ./bootstrap-salt.sh -d

This adds the following var (defaults to $BS_FALSE):
_DISABLE_SALT_CHECKS

+1 from me. although this doesn't patch well with current version of the script. needs rebasing

@denmat, what is the status on this? Is the problem described still happening? Can this be rebased?

[denmat]

Current bootstrap still produces:

Processing triggers for ureadahead (0.100.0-16) ...
 *  INFO: Running install_ubuntu_check_services()
 * ERROR: Failed to run install_ubuntu_check_services()!!!

Have rebased.

Thanks, @denmat. @s0undt3ch, what do you think?

Using the following: (note the use /develop in the bootstrap url)

curl -L https://bootstrap.saltstack.com/develop | sh -s -- git v2014.7.1

Dockerfile:

FROM ubuntu:latest
RUN apt-get -y update && apt-get install -y curl vim
RUN curl -L https://bootstrap.saltstack.com/develop | sh -s -- git v2014.7.1

I still get the following error on Ubuntu 14.04.2:

Writing /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/salt-2014.7.1.egg-info
 *  INFO: Running install_ubuntu_git_post()
 *  WARN: Upstart does not appear to know about salt-minion
 *  INFO: Running install_ubuntu_check_services()
 * ERROR: Failed to run install_ubuntu_check_services()!!!
The command '/bin/sh -c curl -L https://bootstrap.saltstack.com/develop | sh -s -- git v2014.7.1' returned a non-zero code: 1

[s0undt3ch]

You are missing the introduced -d flag.

RUN curl -L https://bootstrap.saltstack.com/develop | sh -s -- -d git v2014.7.1
