Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

He seems to say that I am not the root user, but I did specify the root user

Hi @undefinedd - thanks for taking the time to submit a ticket. I just started working on the agent Docker container (#78) and haven't touched the Master one yet.

Are you running Ansible from a shell within the container? Or running Ansible from the host and connecting to the container via ssh?

Right now, my only thought / suggestions is to:

• Disable / comment out the ufw portions of the Ansible playbook, since network access will be determined when the container is run through Docker port forwards (-p)

OK. I do use docker but I use the host now.
python version: Python 3.6.9
when i run python3 manage.py runserver I got error :
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty.
then i run cat ansible-playbooks/roles/master/templates/production.py.j2 > master/config/setting/production.py
i get error:

Take another look at the installation documentation, the initial_setup.sh script will populate SECRET_KEY: https://github.com/rackerlabs/scantron#ansible-deployment-server-and-initial-setup

python3 manage.py runserver doesn't need to be run manually and cat-ing out ansible-playbooks/roles/master/templates/production.py.j2 into master/config/setting/production.py won't work because it is a Jinja2 template (https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_templating.html#templating-jinja2) that has specific fields filled out with Ansible:

Hi @undefinedd - been playing around with trying to get Master deployted in a container using Ansible. Not completely there yet (or certain that this is the right direction), but had to add the --privileged for ufw-related stuff and --volume /run/dbus/system_bus_socket:/run/dbus/system_bus_socket:ro for setting the timezone.

Going to close this one out for now @undefinedd I can re-open if you are still experiencing issues with it.
