<br>
We have obtained access to a cloud service in Portugal, so I am trying to reproduce the installation we made in the ALE Paris Workshop, using the demo-ec2 ansible inventory. I am using the ala-install github project downloaded in the 2nd of june, 2015.<br>
<br>
Our cloud VM was configured with 8 CPUs, 16 GB RAM and 16 GB disk, and is using a Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS instance. I managed conclude successfully the installation, but in which we had to deal will the following issues:<br>
<br>
Issue 1:<br>
TASK: [biocache-properties | Download SDS layers] ***************************** <br>
fatal: [ala-demo] => error while evaluating conditional: sds_enabled<br>
<br>
FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting<br>
<br>
Solution: As apparently this step is downloading spatial layers for Australia, I opted to skip it. For that, I had to define sds_enabled = false in the demo-ec2 inventory, because the installation was not assuming the default false value.<br>
<br>
Issue 2:<br>
The file biocache-config.properties was not found. In the ansible project, the file is placed at roles/biocache-properties/templates, but the installation is looking for the path roles/biocache-service/templates/config.
<br>
Solution: I created the latter path and copied the file there.<br>
<br>
I hope this helps,<br>
<br>
