On the Vagrant/VirtualBox version of Trellis if something went pear shaped I would just reprovision the server and start fresh. I’ve had some issues with the Lima version where that would be a handy feature, but I’ve had to delete the VM entirely and start fresh, losing any DB changes along with it. Maybe I’m misunderstanding something about the way this works, but in my mind being able to reprovision the server without nuking the whole machine would be beneficial. As of right now when I run trellis vm start after a failed attempt at creating the build, it simply says that the machine is already running/ready.
Can you explain what these failed attempts are? As in, how or why did they fail?
You can reprovision any server and a Lima VM is no different. If the instance/VM is actually running, trellis provision development should work the same as it would for Vagrant.

Oh awesome! I guess I did fundamentally misunderstand something. I thought the provision commands were specific to the Vagrant machines.
The failures happened in like a dozen different places, I’ve been meaning to create a list to bring to the discourse but I haven’t got around to it yet. I do now have it working consistently if I restart my machine before running trellis vm start, but without the restart it pretty much never works (on an M2 machine specifically). I’m about to test the reprovisioning commands and will start a doc of errors also. Thanks again.
Does it hang waiting for the SSH requirement? That’s been the most common issue so far.
Okay so I made a couple of attempts to run trellis vm start on fresh projects to see what error messages I got. Both times I did get errors, and both times upon restarting the machine the command worked properly. Apologies in advance for the giant wall of error text, I’m not savvy enough on this end of things to know what’s important here.

Hopefully something in there is helpful!
Very strange. I’m assuming both issues are related.
Are your Trellis projects on your main macOS hard drive? They aren’t on an external drive or any kind of different setup?
Yeah the projects are on the main macOS drive. There’s nothing unusual about the set up, at least nothing I can think of. The only thing that could potentially be relevant is that I originally had some problems because I forgot that I changed my global python version to 2.7, but I changed it back to the latest and still get these errors. So maybe I messed something up in that process? Seems pretty simple though so I assume it’s unrelated.
From googling, Python will error with No usable temporary directory found for read-only filesystems, so that’s consistent with the other error message.
Can you run the following commands on the VM (trellis vm shell) and paste the output here please:
df -hdf -icat /etc/fstab
Sure, here’s what I got from running those commands:

No, I don’t think that’s an issue. That’s just for metadata Lima uses internally but nothing should be writing to it after boot.
I was more interested in the mount for /srv/www/test.com/current, but those all look fine:
- there’s free space
- there’s free inodes
- it’s mounted as
rw(read-write, as it should be)
But something is causing Python to detect it’s read-only, or out of space, or something like that 
I’m finding other people who have had similar problems with Lima online, but it’s all older versions and issues which don’t seem to apply exactly to the Trellis set up. Frustrating.
Lots of suggesting to change the mountType to virtiofs (which Trellis already uses), and also explicitly declaring the mount writable, (which Trellis also does, obviously). It seems, at least on older versions of Lima, that you can’t change mounts or mount types after the VM is created, but as far as I can tell that’s also not happening here.
I’m about out of ideas. At least it works after a restart, but that’s for sure kind of a drag to have to do every time.
Getting the same error when trying to reprovision PHP. Adding my info for an additional data point.

If you run into this again (or now), please do the following:
-
limactl shell <instance name>(ortrellis vm shell) - Start a python console:
python3 - Type this in
import tempfile
tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()
- Provide the output please
I’m not sure if the directory matters, but please run that twice in from two dirs:
/srv/www/<site>/current/etc/
I just want to make sure this is happening in pure Python outside of Ansible and Trellis.
In my case I get <TemporaryDirectory '/tmp/tmp7s1cgg4a'>, with varying ID strings in both folders.
Just to confirm, provisioning fails right now? Or is it working?
Yeah it’s failing. Here’s the error message I get when I just tried again:

Sorry lost track of this… and that’s a surprising result I didn’t expect
Actually, it might not be enough to just run tempfile.TemporaryDirectory(). Using the same steps as above, can someone try this instead please:
import tempfile
tempfile.mkdtemp()
If it works it will return the path of a tmp folder.
I had the “no usable temp directory” issue today, and on a whim I tried upgrading Lima with brew upgrade lima and it seems to have resolved the issue, at least temporarily.
If I can find any consistency in when it does and doesn’t work I’ll write back.

Leaving this here in the hope that it’s still useful. When I ran into this issue, tempfile.mkdtemp() returned a path in /srv/www/<site>/current, but it failed in /etc:
>>> tempfile.mkdtemp()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python3.10/tempfile.py", line 496, in mkdtemp
prefix, suffix, dir, output_type = _sanitize_params(prefix, suffix, dir)
File "/usr/lib/python3.10/tempfile.py", line 265, in _sanitize_params
dir = gettempdir()
File "/usr/lib/python3.10/tempfile.py", line 438, in gettempdir
return _os.fsdecode(_gettempdir())
File "/usr/lib/python3.10/tempfile.py", line 431, in _gettempdir
tempdir = _get_default_tempdir()
File "/usr/lib/python3.10/tempfile.py", line 362, in _get_default_tempdir
raise FileNotFoundError(_errno.ENOENT,
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No usable temporary directory found in ['/tmp', '/var/tmp', '/usr/tmp', '/etc']
For context, I was trying to re-provision after doing lima factory-reset. Upgrading lima didn’t help, since I already had the latest version. In my case the issue went away after a reboot.

@swalkinshaw Here is what I see once I start getting read only file system errors. The issue seems to be the tmp dir is relative to my site install instead of /tmp or the like
python3
Python 3.10.6 (main, Mar 10 2023, 10:55:28) [GCC 11.3.0] on linux

>>> import tempfile
>>> tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()
<TemporaryDirectory '/srv/www/example.com/current/tmp8lskhwcv'>
>>> tempfile.mkdtemp()
'/srv/www/example.com/current/tmpfg4w_i_a'
>>>
Note that when the file system isn’t in a readonly state I see a differnt path, one that isn’t relative to my install
