ch12s07 Wrong decription in the review lab - paragraph 4

[MSC_D]

Greetings, 

There is a wrong description for the task in the review lab in paragraph 4 - quoting:

The lab start script downloads the rhcsa-script-1.0.0-1.noarch.rpm package in the /home/student directory on the serverb machine.

Confirm that the rhcsa-script-1.0.0-1.noarch.rpm package is available on the serverb machine, and install it by using root privileges. Verify that the package is installed.

------quote finished

Actually lab start script puts the rpm package to the /root directory and not to the home/student. Either script has a bug or the task decription is wrong.

Please notice it and advice.

Best Regards, D.

I have just tested this out, and my pod DOES download the rhcsa-script-1.0.0-1.noarch.rpm package to /home/student (and NOT /root).

Wonder what's different.

@MSC_D I will also check from my side and let you know the details soon.

I tried from my end and it is downloading in the /root directory

[MSC_D]

Hmm, let me try it one more time

Restarting my lab environment, not re-creating but restarting from stop.

so no rpm package in students home.

Here it is in root home:

And here what I see in the labs log :

So its clearly was copied for some reason to the root directory...

Just some additional screenshot:

It did not really influenced the overall flow of the review, as it does not really matter from where you install your rpm as a root, but maybe there was some insentive lost in transition :).

Best Regards, D.

@MSC_D You are right, I think there is a typo in RH124v10 ch12s07 step 4 

I think the step screenshot is correct and the instruction should mention /root. 

I will file a report to get it rectified, thanks for reporting this here.

[MSC_D]

Thank you very much. 

Best Regards, D.

@MSC_D You're welcome!

Ah. V10. That explains it. I assumed v9.3. 

Well-done, all!

ohk @Andrew Thanks for jumping in.
