    Jeos and Gatein appliance login/pwd and more info

    arnab74

      I found the  stormgrider appliance downloads but it does not have any info on login & passwords.

      Also does the Jeos appliance have jboss installed.

      I also could not find any article regarding this.

       

      I would appreciate if someone could give me some more info regarding these.

       

      Thanks and regards

          I found the password as boxgrinder in the following article.

          http://community.jboss.org/wiki/BoxGrinderApplianceDefinitionFiles

           

          But does the jeos appliance have jboss, if not where can I download a vmware appliance which has only jboss installed?

           

          Thanks and regards

            Hi Arnab,

             

            The default password for all our appliances for root user is boxgrinder. The only difference is EC2 where you use public key authorization.

             

            Currently, there is no "JBoss Appliance", although we have CirrAS appliances, where you can find JBoss AS preinstalled on back-end. You can download them and see if it works for you.

             

            But still, there is no "simple" JBoss Appliance. I've filled a task: SFOLIO-10, to create one, feel free to watch it.

              Marek hi,

              Thanks for your reply.

              Please could you let me know the packages installed on cirras frontend, backend and management appliance.

              Do you differenciate the frontend and backend as web tier and middle tier with/without database.

               

              Thanks and regards

                Marek hi,

                It will be nice if you could add mysql/postgresql to the jboss appliance.

                Thanks

                  Yes, I will add PostgreSQL, see SFOLIO-10.

                    Front-end is designed to route requests to back-end. Front-end is simply a load balancer. We're not forcing a database soultuion in CirrAS, you can add what you want to store data.

                     

                    CirrAS packages are available here.

                      Downloaded backend, extracted, copied files in personal to main directory with raw file.

                      When I start appliance in vmware player, it goes upto 'Booting backend in 0 secs', goes to the next screen but there nothing happens......

                      Am I doing anything wrong?

                      Regards

                        No, I think you're right, we had some problems with VMware images for CirrAS last time. The problem is wrong path to initramfs in grub.conf, you can fix that easily. Edit grub while booting and change the line:

                         

                        initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.i686.img

                         

                        to

                         

                        initrd /boot/initramfs-2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.i686.img
                        

                         

                        Make sure you edit grub.conf after you boot to permanently fix the issue. Sorry for this inconvenience. New version of CirrAS should be released soon with new packages and many fixes.

                          Marek hi, thanks for the reply.

                          I was able to change grub and it started, it went upto starting agent RHQ and then some info came up which I'm sending from boot.log as attachment and I think failed.

                          It took me to login and after I logged in with root/boxgrinder it showed me Appliance name, hostname and ip address but when I go on browser to that ip address, it shows page can not be found.

                          Regards

                            It didn't failed – it's a cirras-management bug which tries to start that management twice and because the PID file exists it fails. But the cirras-management is running (check ps ax | grep thin).

                            It took me to login and after I logged in with root/boxgrinder it showed me Appliance name, hostname and ip address but when I go on browser to that ip address, it shows page can not be found.

                            JBoss AS 6 runs on port 8080, not 80.

                              Marek , Thanks

                              I was able to view the page and go to JBoss AS Admin console, what is the username and password here?

                               

                              Next I will try to deploy nodeinfo.war.

                              What are the steps here?

                               

                              First how do I copy the file to the vm, do I use shared folders or is there another way(host m/c:win7). I think it will be great if you could add webmin to the jboss appliance.

                               

                              Is the folder to deploy : /opt/jboss-as6/server/group/deploy/

                               

                              Once I copy, I should be able to view the app at http://ip_addr:8080/node-info/

                                It should be admin/admin IIRC.

                                Is the folder to deploy : /opt/jboss-as6/server/group/deploy/

                                Yu can do this by copying the node-info war there, I use wget for that:

                                 

                                wget http://repo.oddthesis.org/node-info/node-info.war

                                 

                                You can also deploy using admin-console.

                                Once I copy, I should be able to view the app at http://ip_addr:8080/node-info/

                                 

                                Yes!
