Java is missing

[Andrii Vozniuk <an...@vozniuk.com>]

Hi guys,

Three days ago I was successfully deploying my Hadoop cluster on Amazon EC2
with whirr. Now java is not being installed automatically. I'm using  code
from the trunk.

What has happened in the recent days? Should I install Java manually on
every machine? What are other possible solutions?

Jclouds 1.5 has a concept called TemplateBuilderSpec which allows you to
declare a String representation of TemplateBuilder mechanics.

This allows you to set a property to override the default templates used in
jclouds.

For ex.

aws-ec2.template=imageId=ami-foo,hardwareId=m1.large,locationId=eu-west-1

Importantly, these are just strings, so you can publish a series per
operating system family, and choose at runtime with
templateBuilder.from(spec)

Ex. You can make your own Map<String, TemplateBuilderSpec> with your
favorite choices, perhaps locking in templates by id so you don't have to
maintain the brittle java install scripts.

Ex.

templates.get("oneiric-java-ec2");

Regardless of how this is used, the important part is that the constant
complaints of automatic selection can now be over, as we can provide a
properties syntax to afford users a means to supply their preferences
declaratively.

I hope this helps,
-A

Good to know. I guess we have yet another issue we need to fix related to
automatic AMI selection.

Thanks Andrei,

using whirr.image-id=us-east-1/ami-da0cf8b3 for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS worked for
me.

I suspect there is something strange happening with the Ubuntu
repositories. Try
setting the AMI ID.

I'm running the same experiment now.

It seems like this is happening only with trunk. Unreleased version 0.7.2
works fine.
