New infrastructure support is being worked on

[achalupa-ptc]

We are having the same problem in our infrastructure. The salt-bootstrap-breakage page doesn't help at all for the issue reported here.

We found that the execution of salt-cloud -u downloads a bogus copy bootstrap-salt.sh (contains HTML code instead of the actual script) to /etc/salt/cloud.deploy.d/bootstrap-salt.sh.

We are working around the problem by skipping salt-cloud -u and downloading the bootstrap script ourselves.

Really disappointed that SALT didn't anticipate this problem and even their own tooling (salt-cloud) isn't compatible with the change.

@achalupa-ptc Sorry but these changes are beyond the control of the Salt Team, and were sudden.

[achalupa-ptc]

when will a new version of salt-cloud that's compatible be available?

Running into the same issue here. Disappointing that three(!) weeks after the change no sustainable solution is given. Is there any information on when we can expect a proper fix?
