[jira] Created: (CASSANDRA-786) RPM Packages

RPM Packages
------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-786
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-786
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Contrib
            Reporter: Daniel Lundin
            Priority: Minor


RPM packages (and debs of course) would be nice,especially now that cassandra is maturing and gaining more interest.

Lowering the threshold for getting cassandra running and getting started is also important.

I think the RabbitMQ project has an admirable "Download and install" experience, not to mention the rather cute "2 min guarantee". Definitely a good inspiration.

I've been studying Cloudera's Hadoop packages, which are very nice, and really appreciate the separate packages for configuration.
This allows easy deployment of node configuration to a cluster.

I'll have a spec file for building RHEL5 / CentOS packages ready for review and attached here in a bit.

----------------------------------------

Also in SVN the startup class for the debian cassandra.in.sh is still org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon instead of o.a.c.thrift... but that may already be fixed by an existing ticket so I didn't submit a patch.

[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (CASSANDRA-786) RPM Packages

Ted Zlatanov edited comment on CASSANDRA-786 at 2/22/10 6:25 AM:
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Is it possible to autogenerate the Perl bindings as well, similarly to how the Python bindings are done? If that's done I'll contact the maintainer of the CPAN Cassandra::Net module (Leon Brocard) to ensure it uses them as installed instead of trying to autogenerate them. 

While it's nice for development, perhaps the JMX options 

        -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=8080 \ 
        -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false \ 
        -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false" 

should not be set in the RPM startup script for everyone? They could be commented out or optional (in /etc/default/cassandra maybe). 

Similarly, perhaps the stack+heap size and survivor ratios could be set outside the startup script.

I'm basing the comments on JVM options on the existing Debian rules in debian/cassandra.default, so maybe it just makes sense to look at those rules.

> The whole point of using Ivy was to avoid the problems in redistributing third-party binary artifacts.
Agreed... '786-trunk-jar-changes.diff' solved the problem in the wrong place. The solution is to actually update the spec: new patch attached that removes the incubating tag and includes the Ivy fetched jars from the correct location.

The root of the problem was that the spec was built for the 0.5 release specifically. The attached patch makes it useful for trunk and the 0.6 release.

Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-786:
--------------------------------------

Skimming through the patch I noticed lines like ...

%setup -q -n apache-cassandra-incubating-%{dist_version}-src

... that make me think this needs to be updated, (the `incubating' suffix has been removed).

Also, I'm not sure if 786-trunk-jar-changes.diff was meant to be applied to the build.xml in svn, or to be applied during the RPM build, but if it's the former, than consider this a -1 for that patch. The whole point of using Ivy was to avoid the problems in redistributing third-party binary artifacts.

+1: let's get this into contrib.

I'm attaching a patch I needed to apply to trunk/0.6 in order to get the ant 'release' target to include all of the necessary jars.

    Attachment: cassandra.spec

My first stab at a spec file.

This builds packages for cassandra, devel, configuration and python bindings.

 * cassandra
 * cassandra-devel
 * cassandra-conf-example
 * python-cassandra

All config is stored in /etc/cassandra/foo , and update-alternatives is used to select a configuration.

Peter Halliday is working to package Cassandra for Fedora and EPEL. Hopefully he will update this issue soon.

In the meantime, this doesn't seem like something that should be a blocker for 0.6.

[jira] Updated: (CASSANDRA-786) RPM Packages

Posted by "Ted Zlatanov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-786?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Ted Zlatanov updated CASSANDRA-786:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: 786-adjust-jars.patch

Adjust paths of the JAR files so the debian package will build.  I don't know if Ivy can automate this.  I can open a new ticket but figured this was the better place since the RPM needs these paths correct too.
