Hello everyone, My name is Paul Bustios, I'm a student at University of Sao Paulo and I'm interested in participating in GSoC 2019 with you. I've already installed Allura, but I had some problems:
I use Mac OS X, so first I tried to install Allura using Docker (I'm using Docker CE v18.09.2 and Docker Compose v1.23.2), but after executing the command: $ docker-compose run web scripts/init-docker-dev.sh I got the following error: Creating allura_mongo_1 ... error Creating allura_solr_1 ... error onfigure shared paths from Docker -> Preferences... -> File Sharing.\r\nSee https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/osxfs/#namespaces for more info.\r\n.' ERROR: for allura_solr_1 Cannot start service solr: b'Mounts denied: \r\nThe path /allura-data/solr\r\nis not shared from OS X and is not known to Docker.\r\nYou can configure shared paths from Docker -> Preferences... -> File Sharing.\r\nSee https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/osxfs/#namespaces for more info.\r\n.' ERROR: for mongo Cannot start service mongo: b'Mounts denied: \r\nThe path /allura-data/mongo\r\nis not shared from OS X and is not known to Docker.\r\nYou can configure shared paths from Docker -> Preferences... -> File Sharing.\r\nSee https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/osxfs/#namespaces for more info.\r\n.' ERROR: for solr Cannot start service solr: b'Mounts denied: \r\nThe path /allura-data/solr\r\nis not shared from OS X and is not known to Docker.\r\nYou can configure shared paths from Docker -> Preferences... -> File Sharing.\r\nSee https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/osxfs/#namespaces for more info.\r\n.' ERROR: Encountered errors while bringing up the project. I saw init-docker-dev.sh contains the commands to create '/allura-data/solr', but these directories are supposed to be created in the container, right? And the directives 'volumes' in the docker-compose.yml file are trying to mount the host paths '/allura-data/...', which do not exist. Is that why I'm getting those errors? or am I doing something wrong? Then, I tried to install Ubuntu 16.04 in VirtualBox. I downloaded the mini.iso, but the installation failed due to this recent bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1817358. So, I decided to install Ubuntu 18.04 using its mini.iso. After that, I installed Allura following the instructions in https://forge-allura.apache.org/docs/getting_started/install_each_step.html. I had to modify some steps. First, pip fails to build the wheel for Cryptography 1.4 with libssl-dev (which in Ubuntu 18.04 depends on libssl1.1 and not libssl1.0 as in Ubuntu 16.04), so I had to install libssl1.0.0 and libssl1.0-dev instead (I think Cryptography should be upgraded to version 2.4.2 at least). Second, the command: $ sudo -H -u solr bash -c 'cp -R solr_config/allura/ /var/solr/data/' didn't work for me. I got this error: $ cp: cannot stat: 'solr_config/allura': Permission denied apparently the user solr didn't have permission to read 'solr_config/allura/', so I had to change it by: $ sudo cp -R solr_config/allura /var/solr/data $ sudo chown -R solr /var/solr/data/allura Also, NodeJs 4.x is not supported in Ubuntu 18.04, so I ended up installing NodeJs 8.10. Should I continue using Ubuntu 18.04? Or would it be better to install Ubuntu 16.04? Best regards, Paul
