not sure this message got through or not: I am not sure this is the best place to ask for but I tried checking the IRC channel which seemed quite empty and didnt find anywhere else to ask general user questions/problems. But would appreciate some pointers and directions on how I can get it up. I also posted on the Jira ticket regarding this.
I tried following the instructions set on here: http://mesosphere.io/learn/run-docker-on-mesosphere/ Instead of using a local machine (I am on osx), I setup a ubuntu 14 m3.large instance on my AWS acount then followed the instructions. I connected an elastic IP and a subdomain to the instance and opened all the ports on the firewall. However I am not getting any docker containers running. Here are my mesos and marathon urls: Marathon: mesos.cronycle.net:8080 Mesos: mesos.cronycle.net:5050 I just want to get a Rails application up on a docker container and be able to scale it automatically based on resource consumptions and also be able to use the procfile for it similar to Heroku. Is Mesos a good tool for this? I am currently looking at using Deis+CoreOS, but their statistics and monitoring tools seem to be non-existant, there's no automated way of monitoring processes like there is with marathon for instance. So would have liked to make it work ideally if possible. Thanks in advance.
