Hello.
I'm trying to launch an errand job from bosh cli on cloud foundry deployment:

# bosh run errand smoke_tests --keep-alive

and I got following error:

Running smoke tests...

After logging into smoke_tests/0 vm i have found out:

smoke_tests/32e93888-c340-48bd-9f1f-ea7d3abec927:/var/vcap/jobs/smoke-tests/bin# cat config.json

{

"suite_name" : "CF_SMOKE_TESTS",

"use_existing_org" : false,
"use_existing_space" : false,

"enable_windows_tests" : false,
"backend" : "",
"enable_etcd_cluster_check_tests" : false,
"etcd_ip_address" : ""
}

seems like config.json has no proper values...
Any ideas how to fix it?

Hi, Tomasz,

Looks like you need to supply some properties for the smoke-tests errand in
your CF deployment manifest. The spec listing the relevant properties for
the smoke-tests job template is at https://github.com/cloudfou
ndry/cf-release/blob/v252/jobs/smoke-tests/spec. I don't believe the
manifest-generation script and associated templates in the cf-release repo
automatically populate any of those properties, so if you're using that
script you likely need to supply them explicitly in a stub file.

Best,
Eric

Thanks Eric, you are right. I have added proper entries into my stub end it works ;)
