Hi all, I'm new here, but dedicated to becoming a contributor and excited about Cloudstack. I'm trying to deploy it on a CentOS 6.3 management node. I was able to get it deployed with Ubuntu but I'm having a challenge with CentOS that must be something super trivial that's missing...
My problem is, after I complete the steps 3 and 4 in the installation guide, I am unable to log in using admin and password. This only applies to when I set it up using CentOS. I was successful in building it on Ubuntu 12.04 and logging in, however I really want to run CentOS. Do I need to roll back to 6.2 ? I think the problem looks like a database connectivity error. When I look at the management-server.log I see 2012-11-22 05:11:34,217 ERROR [db.Transaction.Transaction] (main:null) Unexpected exception: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException: Could not create connection to database server. Attempted reconnect 3 times. Giving up. Caused by: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure 2012-11-22 05:11:34,223 ERROR [utils.db.DbUtil] (main:null) Unable to acquire DB connection for global lock system 2012-11-22 05:11:34,230 ERROR [utils.component.ComponentLocator] (main:null) Problems with running checker:DatabaseIntegrityChecker com.cloud.utils.exception.CloudRuntimeException: Unable to acquire lock to check for database integrity. A snippet of the management-server.log is here http://pastebin.com/hkSNXmEu I'm able to get to the UI login, but it just won't accept my password. I've tried making sure remote mysql connections are enabled. One interesting thing I've come across is how I'm crafting my cloud-setup-databases command. When I run it like this, it fails: cloud-setup-databases cloud:cloud@192.168.2.220 --deploy-as=root:'rootpwd' but when I change the IP to localhost then it appears to deploy successfully without errors, and builds the mysql. I've even logged in and looked and found the admin username and encrypted password in the table structure. cloud-setup-databases cloud:cloud@localhost --deploy-as=root:'rootpwd' my.cnf looks like this: [mysqld] datadir=/var/lib/mysql socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock user=mysql # Disabling symbolic-links is recommended to prevent assorted security risks symbolic-links=0 [mysqld_safe] log-error=/var/log/mysqld.log pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid I've also pasted my /var/log/mysqld.log here http://pastebin.com/FWfhXAWY Any tips? -Brandon
