Pulp

Problem¶

The only thing left in /var/lib/pulp/ that conflicts between pulp2 and pulp3 is /var/lib/pulp/static

At installation time, this causes an error when deploying pulp3 onto a pulp2 server because on pulp2 this directory is owned by apache, and pulp3 expects this to be owned by pulp_user.

Solution¶

To allow the long-term state of Pulp3 to make the most sense we've taken the approach in other areas to rename the Pulp2 once and advertise that breaking change loudly on pulp-list early.

Create a new migration that will rename /var/lib/pulp/static/ to /var/lib/pulp/pulp2static
