Bug Description
=== Begin SRU Information ===
[Impact]
* If a user launches a 10.04 cloud-image with a user-data script, and then
does a upgrade to 12.04 and 'reboot's to complete the upgrade, the
user-data script will incorrectly execute again on boot.
This is because the cloud config module that executed user-data changed
names between 10.04 and 12.04 from 'user-scripts' to 'config-
but nothing was in place to adjust the "already ran" marker file
[Test Case]
* launch an instance with some user-data:
$ cat lp-1049146-
#!/bin/sh
echo "====== $(date -R) [$0] =====" | tee -a /root/user-data.log
$ ubuntu-ec2-run --key=your-keyname --instance-
-
# us-east-
* upgrade the image and then do-release-upgrade it, then reboot
$ IP=THE_IP_ADDRESS
$ ssh ubuntu@$IP
% sudo apt-get update -q && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
% do-release-upgrade --frontend=
# you could install the patched new version of cloud-init by hand here.
% sudo reboot
* see that the user-data has run more than once
# upon reboot, you'll see that the user-data script ran again (twice)
$ sudo cat /root/user-data.log

[Regression Potential]
* There is little potential to make anything worse here. The relevant
change is really only to touch a file in the post install that will
serve as a marker for the newer version of cloud-init, so it realize
that the user-data has already been executed once.
=== End SRU Information ===
I spawned a lucid AWS instance and used some cloud-init config to perform some tasks for me.
All is good.
Then, as part of the task I was performing, I upgraded that lucid instance to precise using do-release-upgrade. It failed, but unrelated to cloud-init (a postinst from a package failed).
I then rebooted the instance. When it came back up, the cloud-init config I supplied the first time was run again, as if this was the first time the instance booted.
smoser had access to before and after reboot, and asked to add this to the bug:
