Hey,

just my two cents: It's possible to run the builders completely without NFS. I use "topurl=" instead of "topdir=" in kojid.conf. The URL is  http://kojihub.domain.tld/kojimnt where kojimnt is apache aliased to the /mnt/koji on kojihub. Regen repos has to be run on kojihub in thatcase. It's the only one in the createrepo channel.

As for the NFS problem: Smells so much like Selinux. Maybe on the server-side? Do you use NFS4 ?

Is this the right place for questions on local koji installations?

Fresh setup of koji on CentOS 6.2.  I've got hub, web and builder all
talking to each other, external repositories defined for the build tag and
build groups set up.

/mnt/koji is an nfs mount with root squashed to uid 48 (apache).  I've
tested that I can write to the subdirectories as root and the owner comes
out as apache.  The directory looks like

 # ll -R koji
 koji:
 total 16
 drwxr-xr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Apr 12 11:13 packages
 drwxr-xr-x 3 apache apache 4096 Apr 12 15:20 repos
 drwxr-xr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Apr 12 11:13 scratch
 drwxr-xr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Apr 12 11:13 work

 koji/packages:
 total 0

 koji/repos:
 total 0

 koji/scratch:
 total 0

 koji/work:
 total 0

The Koji/ExternalRepoServerBootstrap document says "Wait for the repo to
regenerate, and you should now be able to run a build successfully."
However, Koji-web lists the newRepo task as failed with result "<type
'exceptions.OSError'>: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/mnt/koji/repos'".  On
the builder, kojid.log reports:

 2012-04-12 14:20:31,067 [INFO] koji.build: Starting up

I've looked into the code, but my python is not up to debugging that.  It's
not an SELinux problem (I tried permissive mode) and /mnt/koji is mounted
read-write on the builder even though the documentation says that's not
necessary.  Can someone point me in the right direction?
