Error summary:
- Exact error message and exit code:
- "ERROR: failed to build: failed to solve: process \"/bin/sh -c make check VERBOSE=1\" did not complete successfully: exit code: 2"
- Failing command/step:
- Step [8/9] RUN make check VERBOSE=1
- Missing packages or files mentioned:
- Test files not found (causing skips):
- t_server_null.sh: "./t_server_null.sh: cannot find './t_server_null.rc'. SKIPPING TEST."
- t_client.sh: "./t_client.sh: cannot find 't_client.rc' in build dir ('..') or source directory ('.'). SKIPPING TEST."
- Runtime tooling missing for tests:
- "ip" command not found (t_net.sh reports "ip: command not found"), leading to failure in System Tests: "can't create interface ovpn-dummy0".
- Base image/toolchain info:
- FROM ubuntu jammy-20260210.1 (as shown by the build log).
- Version mismatch info:
- Apt install shows: "3 upgraded, 88 newly installed, 0 to remove and 8 not upgraded."
- Toolchain mix: multiple GCC toolchain packages are upgraded/installed (gcc-12-base, libstdc++6, etc.) alongside existing gcc-11 components (e.g., gcc-11-base, gcc-11, g++-11). This indicates a mixed GCC environment (gcc-11 and gcc-12 present/upgraded) during the build.
- These version shifts occur during the RUN apt-get install -y ... step in the Ubuntu base image.
Context: OpenVPN unit tests largely pass, but System Tests fail due to missing iproute2/ip and missing rc test files, resulting in the overall docker build failing at make check with exit code 2.FROM ubuntu:jammy-20260210.1

Summary of Docker build error
- Exact error message and exit code
- ERROR: process "/bin/sh -c make check VERBOSE=1" did not complete successfully: exit code: 2
- Failing command/step
- [ 9/10] RUN make check VERBOSE=1
- Missing packages or files mentioned
- t_client.sh reports missing test RC file:
- "./t_client.sh: cannot find 't_client.rc' in build dir ('..')"
- t_server_null test rc handling errors (RC misparsed):
- "./t_server_null.sh: 1: ./t_server_null.rc: -E: not found"
- "./t_server_null_server.sh: 1: ./t_server_null.rc: ./t_server_null_client.sh: 1: ./t_server_null.rc: -E: not found"
- System test environment issues surfaced:
- Cannot open TUN/TAP device: "Cannot open TUN/TAP dev /dev/net/tun: No such file or directory (errno=2)"
- "Cannot find device 'ovpn-dummy0'"
- Result: multiple OpenVPN system tests fail to start, with 0/4 servers up in several runs
- Version/compatibility information (mismatches)
- Base image: ubuntu jammy (jammy-20260210.1)
- OpenVPN and related libs reported:
- OpenVPN 2.8_git
- OpenSSL library: OpenSSL 3.0.2
- LZO: 2.10
- Kernel/driver capability note:
- "Note: Kernel support for ovpn-dco missing, disabling data channel offload."
- Implication: missing /dev/net/tun capability in the container (kernel/module support) and RC parsing issues in test scripts contribute to test failures
- Additional context
- Unit tests (17/17) passed, but system tests failed (2 FAIL, 2 PASS, 1 SKIP in system tests; overall system tests 5 total, 2 PASS, 2 FAIL, 1 SKIP)
- The build progressed through many apt installs and build steps before the failing make check step, but the failures stem from test harness/ENV issues and RC/script problems rather than compilation.FROM ubuntu:jammy-20260210.1
