Comment 0 for bug 1451228

This bug is found in version "packstack Juno 2014.2.dev1468.gd049ea9". The CentOS version was "3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64"

Packstack can not start iptables when it runs on a node with CentOS 7 and without iptables and iptable-services installed before that. The error message was:
"PuppetError: Error appeared during Puppet run: 192.168.93.157_prescript.pp
Error: Could not start Service[iptables]: Execution of '/usr/bin/systemctl start iptables' returned 6: Failed to issue method call: Unit iptables.service failed to load: No such file or directory."

After this error occurs, if you re-run packstack on the same node, this error will not occur again. In fact, after that error, you can successfully start iptables manually, as shown in the attachment. So iptables and iptable-services must be installed by packstack already but packstack fails to start them at a right time or in a right order.

In prescript.pp.log:
"Error: Could not start Service[iptables]: Execution of '/usr/bin/systemctl start iptables' returned 6: Failed to issue method call: Unit iptables.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
Wrapped exception:
Execution of '/usr/bin/systemctl start iptables' returned 6: Failed to issue method call: Unit iptables.service failed to load: No such file or directory.

In openstack-setup.log:
