I want to create a groups with all the nodes wich have mysql-server and jboss4 packets.
But with the 2 software name criteria (mysql-server and jboss4) and the operand AND , the nodes not apparaid.
Why ?

The name of packets and the name in the inventory are the same.

Thanks for reporting this bug. I'm able to reproduce it on Rudder 2.4.

François could you look into this issue please ?

Well, I fear it's the expected behaviour. I know that it's not what you think, and actually what you want is the intersting thing, but we can't express it for now.

What the query is actually doing is:

nodes with software named (jboss and mysql). Clearly, I don't think you have such softwares. 

Just to be sure, what you want is "(all nodes with software named jboss) intersection (all nodes with software named mysql-server), i.e:

nodes with ( (software named jboss) and (software named mysql) ).

The problem of what you want is that it can be expressed thanks to two subqueries ("get software with nane jboss" and "get software with name mysql"), for each of them find node with such software, and then do the intersection of the set of nodes. And well, we don't support sub-request.

I'm very sorry, perhaps you could form a gang with coredumb and dnss to ask for that feature?

For confirmation :

If the query is actually doing is : nodes with software named (jboss and mysql)

Then if i have one node with jboss AND mysql installed

Then this node is selected ?

Thank you

No, with that request, you ask for node which have ONE software with both "jboss" and "mysql" for name - that should not happen.

But it allows to search for Apache in version 2.2.xxx (else, you would have all nodes with apache 1.3 (yes, I'm old) and SomeSoft v2.2.xxx).

Currently, I don't know any way to do what you want.

Yes, rejected as "expected behaviour". And we could thing to a way to improve search.
