The Dell XPS13 L322X Ultrabook is a truly wonderful development machine. With a third generation dual core Intel i7 processor and fast SSD disk, you literally hold a Linux mini-server in the palm of your hands. This Ultrabook, originally imaged by Dell with Windows 8, is now configured with dual-boot Debian sid and CentOS 6.4 - the best of both Open Source Linux variants.

Cloud computing is all the rage these days, so after installing DevStack and the OpenStack Grizzly Debian packages, I decided to try out a competing product. For this cloud project, the latest OpenNebula release 4.0 Debian package was downloaded from the opennebula.org site (from http://downloads.opennebula.org/ select Debian-6.0.7-opennebula-4.0.0-1.tar.gz and source opennebula-4.0.0.tar.gz). |
The Debian tarball contains the following files:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 56398 May 8 11:53 libopennebula-java_4.0.0-1_all.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 119738 May 8 11:53 libopennebula-java-doc_4.0.0-1_all.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 989702 May 8 11:53 opennebula_4.0.0-1_amd64.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1499 May 8 11:49 opennebula_4.0.0-1.dsc -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12944 May 8 11:53 opennebula-common_4.0.0-1_all.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13760 May 8 11:53 opennebula-node_4.0.0-1_all.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 433078 May 8 11:53 opennebula-ozones_4.0.0-1_all.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1115450 May 8 11:53 opennebula-sunstone_4.0.0-1_all.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 90780 May 8 11:53 opennebula-tools_4.0.0-1_all.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 61846 May 8 11:53 ruby-opennebula_4.0.0-1_all.deb
Examine opennebula_4.0.0-1.dsc and install the build dependencies with apt-get, if you don't already have them: bash-completion, bison, debhelper (>= 7.0.50~), default-jdk, flex, javahelper (>= 0.32), libmysql++-dev, libsqlite3-dev, libssl-dev, libws-commons-util-java, libxml2-dev, libxmlrpc-c3-dev, libxmlrpc3-client-java, libxmlrpc3-common-java, libxslt1-dev, ruby, scons
Examine the running version of ruby and rubygems (should be version 1.8, not 1.9):
# ruby --version ruby 1.8.7 (2012-02-08 patchlevel 358) [x86_64-linux] # gem --version 1.8.24
On this host, I had ruby and gem defaults at version 1.9, and had to redo the symbolic link in /usr/bin to point to the right command version. If you have ruby and gem at a later version, strange things will happen with the scripts.
Install the deb packages:
# for i in `ls *.deb` > do > dpkg -i $i > done
All packages will install, except the following:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of opennebula:
opennebula depends on libmysqlclient16 (>= 5.1.21-1); however:
Package libmysqlclient16 is not installed.
opennebula depends on libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8m-1); however:

opennebula depends on libxmlrpc-c3; however:
Package libxmlrpc-c3 is not installed.

We have higher versions of libmysqlclient18, libssl1.0.1e-2, libxmlrpc-c3-dev and libxmlrpc-core-c3 ver 1.66 which replaces the old package libxmlrpc-c3 ver 1.06. So the package opennebula_4.0.0-1_amd64.deb obtained from the vendor, meant for Debian 6.0 Squeeze, will not install normally in sid, but the rest of the suite will.
I want to keep the system orderly and have install locations as close to the Debian standard as possible, so we will keep the good packages and just add the missing files. At some later time, this package will be available from a Debian repository, and we will be able to then upgrade normally.
Examine the contents of the opennebula package with the following command:
# dpkg --contents opennebula_4.0.0-1_amd64.deb
Since we already know that we have all dependencies installed at a higher rev than required by the package, chances are slim that something will break, other than the compiled binaries that use shared libraries with a specific version. So we simply extract the package files into the root filesystem:
# dpkg-deb -x opennebula_4.0.0-1_amd64.deb /
Execute the following command to install the ruby gems:

Now it's time to take a look at the source package. Extract opennebula-4.0.0.tar.gz in a work directory, cd to opennebula-4.0.0 then # cat README.md. By following all the instructions, you will be able to compile the package from source. This may come in handy should any of the files that were extracted manually from the opennebula_4.0.0-1_amd64.deb package for Squeeze give problems. Notice that this source package from C12G Labs is generic Linux - it does not contain a debian directory with Debian-specific patches and post-install scripts like you see in Debian source packages. Chances are that if you install everything from the generic package that was built manually, the paths, setup and file locations will be different than as installed with pre-built .deb packages.
The binaries from the Squeeze build need to be checked. Here is where old dependency versions become a problem:
# file /usr/bin/oned
/usr/bin/oned: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, BuildID[sha1]=afa4c3bb5368041897a81332b8199c7bc117aff9, stripped

libxmlrpc_server_abyss++.so.3 => not found
libxmlrpc_server++.so.3 => not found
libxmlrpc_client++.so.3 => not found
libxmlrpc++.so.3 => not found
We built binary files oned and mm_sched from source with mysql support (# scons mysql=yes), so we can replace them. The new dynamic library versions are:
libcrypto.so.1.0.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 (0x00007fc3db051000)
libmysqlclient.so.18 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient.so.18 (0x00007f69da287000)
libxmlrpc_server_abyss++.so.4 => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_server_abyss++.so.4 (0x00007f69d9059000)
libxmlrpc_server++.so.4 => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_server++.so.4 (0x00007f69d8e4f000)
libxmlrpc_client++.so.4 => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_client++.so.4 (0x00007f69d9a41000)
libxmlrpc++.so.4 => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc++.so.4 (0x00007f69d83ed000)
A quick hack would be to symbolically link the higher version shared libs to lower version names, but replacing the binaries with newly compiled ones is more robust.
The OpenNebula installation is now ready for configuration. Visit the OpenNebula 4.0 Guides site for comprehensive setup instructions.
A few hints for quick and dirty testing:
# chown oneadmin:cloud /var/lib/one # mkdir /var/lib/one/.one; chmod 700 /var/lib/one/.one # echo "oneadmin:password" > /var/lib/one/.one/one_auth # chmod 600 /var/lib/one/.one/one_auth # chown -R oneadmin:cloud /var/lib/one/.one # chown oneadmin:cloud /var/log/one # mkdir /var/tmp/one; chown oneadmin:cloud /var/tmp/one # /etc/init.d/opennebula start # oneuser list ID NAME GROUP AUTH VMS MEMORY CPU 0 oneadmin oneadmin core - - - 1 serveradmin oneadmin server_c - - -
Examine the logs in /var/log/one and correct problems, if any.
The second component to start is the sunstone-server. Execute:
# /etc/init.d/opennebula-sunstone start VNC proxy started Error executing sunstone-server. Check /var/log/one/sunstone.error and /var/log/one/sunstone.log for more informationUnfortunately, sunstone-server won't start. From the sunstone.error logs:
Requiring "OpenNebula" is deprecated. Use "opennebula".

By a similar name, file /usr/lib/one/ruby/opennebula/document_json.rb exists. The sunstone-server and associated ruby scripts are part of the opennebula-sunstone_4.0.0-1_all.deb package which installed correctly.
So I'm thinking that someone changed the ruby filenames for whatever reason, but left in place the old name references. Linux is case sensitive. Do the following:
# cd /usr/lib/one/ruby/ # ln -s opennebula OpenNebula # cd OpenNebula # cp -p document_json.rb DocumentJSON.rb # cp -p document_pool_json.rb DocumentPoolJSON.rb # /etc/init.d/opennebula-sunstone start VNC proxy started sunstone-server started
Et voila! Problem solved. Check URL http://localhost:9869/ for the OpenNebula Sunstone login prompt.

you can follow the instructions at

* ruby and rubygems installed. This should be already installed
if you have already OpenNebula
* bundler. Needed for both AppFlow and AppMarket. To install it
you can issue:
# gem install bundler
* Required gems. To install the gems needed by AppFlow and
AppMarket do this:

All files from the apps package that install in /usr/bin are ASCII text ruby scripts, so there are no binary compatibility issues to worry about. The OpenNebulaApps docs for AppStage, AppFlow and AppMarket can be found here.
The only thing is, the version of the OpenNebulaApps package currently available is 3.8. As the developer C12G Labs cautions:
"Although the OpenNebulaApps suite is now installed and configured as a separated component, it will be incorporated into the OpenNebula main distribution in one of the upcoming OpenNebula releases.
A new version of OpenNebulaApps to work on OpenNebula 4.0 will be available for download in few days."
This indicates that the latter part of the install procedure may change.
