installation question
I'm reinstalling on Cent 6.3
In the installation guide,
http://incubator.apache.org/cloudstack/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.0.
0-incubating/html/Installation_Guide/sect-source-buildrpm.html
Section 3.6 says to run 'mvn -P deps' which I can do successfully
Then it wants me to run './waf rpm' which fails to build successfully on
some ant error... I can get more specific if needed.
If I skip the rpm build, the next step says to configure my new YUM
repository (Step 3.6.2)
At /etc/yum.repos.d/cloudstack.repo
I add this code:
[apache-cloudstack]
name=Apache CloudStack
baseurl=http://webserver.tld/path/to/repo
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
Except for my base URL path, I went to the downloads page of the
cloudstack incubator and found the RPM package repo linked on this page
http://incubator.apache.org/cloudstack/downloads.html
[apache-cloudstack]
name=Apache CloudStack
baseurl=http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/rhel/4.0/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
When I do that, and then 'yum install cloud-client' I'm able to obtain
what appears to be the correct stuff. I just need to know - is it ok for
me to use that repo (the rpm's at cloudstack), and not successfully run
the './waf rpm' or do I have to still build the rpm's anyway?

Hi Brandon,
It's totally fine to use the yum repo: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/rhel/4.0/
There is also a repo for Ubuntu
Compiling from source is not required and mostly geared for developers.
Also note that all apache releases are *source* releases. The binaries are provided by third parties as convenience for the community.
So by all means, do use the repo.
Best,
-Sebastien

Thank you that Sebastien,
Unfortunately you are about 3 months too late, as the servers are now
built, but should I have to build another I will look these over.

Michael,
Check the Downloads page: http://incubator.apache.org/cloudstack/downloads.html
You will see that debian packages are at: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/ubuntu
They have been tested on Ubuntu 12.04. Let us know if you have any issues.
thanks,

Funny you should say that. I would have been running it on Ubuntu but I
could not get the previous version to run on Ubuntu at all.

Thanks Michael. Yes I've practically got that pdf memorized, honestly I
agree completely it shouldn't be hard. I used it fine for my Ubuntu
install. I'm almost certain I'm following it to the T, but maybe I'm
going overboard with building maven from source and downloading the git
repo of the cloudstack source before doing the yum install cloud client.
If all I have to do is point my cloudstack repo and run yum, I'm likely
heavily over configuring... which can cause problems like I'm having

I have done this installation my self on Cent 6.3. I do not remember

To be honest I would use

This does work and is not that hard to follow.
