You need to give more information. Did you comply to the requirements? "You will need one small server for MAAS and at least one server which can be managed with a BMC. It is recommended to have the MAAS server provide DHCP and DNS on a network the managed machines are connected to.". – WillemK Oct 16 '17 at 9:37
    
Way to help @WillemK. Have you tried to build a MaaS server off the iso? – rmustakos Nov 2 '17 at 2:42
    
@mustakos: Are you asking me if i installed MaaS? No, i did not. Not sure its helpfull if i did? – WillemK Nov 2 '17 at 13:54
    
It is what would have addressed Vamsi's problem. You answered without understanding what was going on, though he stated it plainly. He used the iso, selected install maas server, and the install failed. The only things required to install maas are a machine with a dvd drive and a dvd. To do more, you either need more machines or VMS, But for installing, you only need one machine. – rmustakos Nov 2 '17 at 19:56

I get this same error every time I try to build a maas server off the 16.04 iso.

I select Install Ubuntu Server and in Software selection I choose PostgreSQL database and openSSH server

After the system builds, at the command line, I use:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install maas
reboot

At that point I think you are in the same place you would be if you selected installed MaaS directly from the ISO.

I did exactly the same you did and it works! you don't have to install PostgreSQL database, just openssh. sudo apt install maas will do the job for you. after the install is done, create a user for the webGUI , you can find how to in the guides. after that just open a web browser pointing that MAAS url and done!

This is in as an error on launchpad, so they may have fixed it – rmustakos Nov 14 '17 at 18:07
