[jira] [Created] (MESOS-3844) getting started documentation has flaws, corrections suggested (http://mesos.apache.org/gettingstarted/)

Manne Laukkanen created MESOS-3844:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: getting started documentation has flaws, corrections suggested (http://mesos.apache.org/gettingstarted/)
                 Key: MESOS-3844
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3844
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Documentation
          Components: documentation, ec2, project website, test
    Affects Versions: 0.25.0
         Environment: CentOS 7 AWS Linux image: AWS EC2 MarketPlace CentOS 7 (x86_64) with Updates HVM (a t2.medium instance)
            Reporter: Manne Laukkanen
            Priority: Trivial


Getting started documentation, while having great virtues, has room for improvement:

1) Documentation is illogical and wrong for this part:
 " $ wget http://www.apache.org/dist/mesos/0.25.0/mesos-0.25.0.tar.gz
 $ tar -zxf mesos-0.25.0.tar.gz" ...then, later:
"    # Install a few utility tools
    $ sudo yum install -y tar wget
..obviously using tar and wget is not possible before installing them.

2) Although vi is fine for many, utility tools having:
sudo yum install -y tar wget nano
might make editing the WANDISCO -repo file way easier for newbies.

3) Advice to launch Mesos with localhost option ( " ./bin/mesos-master.sh --ip=127.0.0.1 --work_dir=/var/lib/mesos " ) will lead into a state where Mesos UI can not be reached in port :5050 in a production environment in AWS EC2
