wakeonlan binary not working for me

[yosefrow]

i used wakeonlan with format wakeonlan remote-mac and it didnt work. then i tried etherwake remote-mac and it worked. So i concluded your plugin didnt work because for some reason wakeonlan is not working with my remote machine.

I then tried replacing every instance of wakeonlan with etherwake in the patch and it still didnt work. So im clearly getting something wrong in configuration. Since I confirmed that the raw command etherwake remote-mac works 100% of the time

We can replace wakeonlan to etherwake as below, but wakeonlan can be performed successfully on my env.

        subprocess.call(["etherwake", context.get("power_mac")])

What version of maas are you running? I'm running 2.2.2

[kairen]

2.2.0 (bzr6054-0ubuntu1~16.04.1)

[kairen]

I try on v2.2.2 (6099-g8751f91-0ubuntu1~16.04.1), but I can work.

The problem was that maas must be used with etherwake to get it to work for me and etherwake require root perms

@kairen Thanks for all the great work you've done. if anyone complains of a similar problem to mine, where only etherwake works for them and not wakeonlan, you can point them to my fork. Feel free to integrate it into your own plugin as well.

basically the main difference as I said earlier is that etherwake requires root perms in my environment.
