Install minione using a Proxy

[eferrandi31]

Proxy support during Minione installation

Description

I’m trying to install Minione following the official documentation, but I’m facing issues when using a proxy.

Environment

• OS: Ubuntu 24.04
• Network: Private network without NAT outbound to the Internet
• Proxy: HTTP proxy without authentication

Issue

When running the installation script, the process stops during the task:

Exporting [Alpine Linux 3.20] from Marketplace to local datastore

Because of this, I cannot retrieve the login information at the end of the script.
The web interface starts, but it always shows “There is no data available”, and I cannot perform any actions such as creating VMs or templates.

Steps to Reproduce

./minione -v --yes --force

The script runs all checks and installs OpenNebula, but hangs at the Marketplace export step.

Workaround

To complete the installation and retrieve the password, I had to:

1. Comment out these lines in the script:

check "export_marketapp \"$MARKET_APP_NAME\"" "Exporting [${MARKET_APP_NAME}] from Marketplace to local datastore"
check "image_is_ready" "Waiting until the image is ready"
check "update_template" "Updating VM template"

2. Manually configure the proxy in /etc/one/oned.conf:

MARKET_MAD = [
    EXECUTABLE = "one_market",
    ARGUMENTS  = "-t 15 --proxy http://proxy.example.com:1111 -m http,s3,one,linuxcontainers"
]

3. Restart OpenNebula services:

sudo systemctl restart opennebula

Proposal

Could you provide an option in Minione to configure a proxy during installation?
This would allow the Marketplace export step to work in environments that require a proxy.
