hi

am keen to get the Aegir script running, so here is my adventure.. I am getting the following error below

I know install-aegir.sh script isnt supported, but in case there is someone out there generous or silly enough to help me out

note, during installation it asks me for mysql root password, which is set in the script.. which makes me think I am perhaps doing something really basic wrong...

QUESTION: from what folder and what command do I use to execute the script? 


Do you really want to proceed with the install (y/n): y
Project drush_make (6.x-2.0-beta9) downloaded to                     [success]
/var/aegir/.drush//drush_make.

Aegir Installation complete.

Aegir is a hosting management platform.  Aegir is running at http://aegir.dev

To restart Aegir:  sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

To admin Aegir: http://aegir.dev/

For details on using Aegir, see here: http://aegirproject.org/

NOTE: ABOVE IS A PASSWORD RESET URL.  USE IT TO LOGIN INITIALLY.

NOTE 2: If you lost your password reset url, get a new one for user 'admin' and 
        check the ~/websites/log/mail folder for a password reset email.
        
RESTART OR RELOGIN for apache2ctl to work.

the Apache environment seems set-up OK (and other changes have been made like users, groups etc), but no db is created

update

it seems that the version Drush 4.x Provision is breaking Aegir - but in HEAD Aegir and Drush its now fixed

am exploring upgrade or downgrade to Drush within context of Quickstart (downgrade to 3.3. first, upgrade to 5 second)

Hi niccolo,

Check out the comments at the top of the script.

Seems like I keep fixing this script and it keeps breaking as Aegir moves forward. This will stabilize as Aegir gets out of beta.

For now you may have to do this manually. I'd be interested in a patch if you care to make one...

hi Mike

I think the fix revolves around using Drush 3 or getting Provision and Aegir from HEAD. I started to look into this, but haven't progressed so far.

Will try the manual install, but I am guessing might have the same problems with Drush / Provision

Will work on it some more.

thanks

hi again

I just tried the install script from
http://community.aegirproject.org/node/246
https://github.com/doka/install-aegir-on-ubuntu/blob/master/install-aegi...

got the same result... I expect a manual installation will have the same result

will downgrading Drush to 3.3 in Quickstart cause elements of the Quickstart dev environment to break ?

Ha, I'm about 5 weeks from diving deep into Aegir.

Hopefully, they'll RC 0.4 by then :-)

niccolox commented

ok, I guess we are near closure.

I haven't got a patch, but I do have a simple change that could be considered a FIX

in your install-aegir.sh script

replace this line 

http://git.aegirproject.org/?p=provision.git;a=blob_plain;f=install.sh.txt;hb=provision-0.4-beta2

to this one referencing the HEAD install script

http://git.aegirproject.org/?p=provision.git;a=blob_plain;f=install.sh.txt;hb=master

cheers for the Quickstart btw, I am diving deeper into Ubuntu and Drupal coding and this environment has lived up to its name (and more)

if you are around Berkeley I'll buy you a beer, or a feed or a book !

cheers

my understanding they are going to go straight to v1 from the betas... bit hazey on that.. but its punctuated equillibrium in Aegir water world

For whatever reason, this didn't work for me, but I'll follow this thread and see how it all shakes out.

Thanks,

Andrew

This is important, but I won't get around to fixing it till after Aegir 0.4 is released.

If you had trouble with the updated instructions, reboot and try again. Maybe try with sudo? Make sure you specify 'quickstart' as the root DB password. The fix failed for me the first time .. and then worked fine the next day.

I had the same problem with provision complaining that it needed a higher bootstrap level and tried the fix in #6 to no avail. I finally, managed to get it working:

  1. Uninstalled my previous failed attempt
  2. Updated drush to the latest (4.4)
  3. Modified the install-aegir script as per #6

I think the reason my first attempt at applying #6 failed is that the install process detects if provision is already installed. By uninstalling aegir completely, the install process managed to successfully download the proper version of provision.

I worked through the Quickstart distro as-delivered, plus the aegir script and eventually got it to work for me. In fact Aegir has been put through the paces for a week now.

Being a documentation guy, I worked a second time to install it, just so I could write detailed notes, but failed to install the second time. Still, I can remember the main steps for the most part I think, and I kept some notes.

Using the latest available versions, I overwrote all off the files in:

/home/quickstart/drush

Using the latest available versions, I overwrote all of the files in:

/home/quickstart/.drush/drush_make

Next, go to:

http://git.aegirproject.org/?p=provision.git;a=blob_plain;f=install.sh.txt

This file must be saved as:

/home/quickstart/quickstart/etc/install.sh.txt

changed line 32 from:

AEGIR_GIT_URL="http://git.aegirproject.org/?p=provision.git;a=blob_plain;f=install.sh.txt;hb=provision-0.4-beta1"

to:

AEGIR_GIT_URL="/home/quickstart/quickstart/etc/install.sh.txt"

changed these lines:

## MySQL
# no config
## Run Install Script
wget -O install.sh.txt "$AEGIR_GIT_URL"
sudo su -s /bin/sh aegir -c "sh install.sh.txt $AEGIR_LOCAL_DOMAIN"
echo "$HELP" 

to:

## MySQL
# no config

sudo su -s /bin/sh aegir -c "/home/quickstart/quickstart/etc/install.sh.txt"

echo "$HELP" 

....and finally, as I vaguely recall what worked, I ran the two lines that follow, one after the other in the SAME command line window. But I failed to replicate the process in spite of multiple attempts.

bash /home/quickstart/quickstart/etc/install-aegir.sh
bash /home/quickstart/quickstart/etc/install.sh.txt

 

Note WGET always failed to download the aegir script, so I worked around that WGET aspect by saving it manuall, and not scripting it. Also, running two scripts in one window allows variables relevant from the first to carry into the second.

Hopefully these contributed notes help someone else. Kudos for the distro!!

I tried #12 and it I broke Quickstart i.e. aegir.dev doesnt resolve, nor does localhost or the example6.dev or example.dev

would be wonderful if this could be resolved now that Aegir is now version 1 rc07

Hi, anybody want to take a stab at doing this?

niccolox commented

Anarcat is working on deb Aegir installations too. Will be looking at this myself again "real soon now"

I noticed also that you've released a GIT enabled incremental version, I will download and try that.. this ticket may need to be closed as obselete..

more soon

UPDATE: Downloaded latest version QS901

downloaded the latest version qs901 and ran the manual installation for Aegir 1rc0.7

http://community.aegirproject.org/installing/manual#Install_system_requi...
http://community.aegirproject.org/1.0-rc7

Aegir now runs, but its broken localhost, so I've lost access to http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ and http://localhost

the test sites http://example.dev/ and http://example6.dev/ still work ok

haven't yet tried to install a new site using either Aegir or the Quickstart Drush method

I am guessing there will be some clashes and problems with Aegir and Quickstart having their own versions and Drush approaches

possible contention points;
-aegir installation involved mysql download, why did that work and not break ?
-aegir wanted a Drush download and install? does that clash with qs901's Drush ?
-aegir and Quickstart both deal with apache conf and dns, will these clash ?

Aegir: a D7 drush dl drupal into /var/aegir/platforms works fine i.e. platform verifies and creates site i.e. http://d7.aegir.dev

Quickstart: using drush dc --domain=test1.dev in websites folder was able to create a site and load it in Netbeans. Did a wget for Display Suite module and installed ok within that test1.dev

made a really clumsy Quickstart-Aegir dev/stage/live type workflow by add the test1.dev to GIT, which then allowed me to import it from RabbitVCS GIT to a folder /var/platforms/test1.dev.

will look into fixing the mysql phpadmin dns

for smooth workflow need something done with adding a new user to the aegir group ?

thanks for keeping this alive

I am happily working away using Aegir-centric Drupal dev and prototyping using qs901

I'd seriously recommend trying to update qs901 to support Aegir

also, you might be interested in the new continous integration Jenkins system for Aegir

rocks !!!

I know this isn't exactly a major accomplishment, but, I worked-out http://localhost.localdomain/phpmyadmin is the new location for PhpMyAdmin....

Hi Niccolo,

I'm working on this today and some next week. I think I'll release a beta version for everything but the drush commands next week.

If you want it sooner, you can clone the git repo and check out the "contrib" directory.

Cheers,

Mike
