Hey,

We are getting a little closer to Amahi 7. As you know, the page on amahi edge development is up and about.

As we move along, another piece in the next steps is hdactl running.

Edit: check the two binaries in the wiki ...

There is no package for the platform yet ... so it has to be run by hand still.

Update: latest tarball link added to the Amahi Edge page

Nice!

But it seems - if I'm not wrong - there is still a problem:

Code: Select all

[root@F17AMD64 ~]# rpm -ivh hdactl-4.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:

[root@F17AMD64 ~]#

hdactl needs ruby-rdoc, but ruby-rdoc is obsolete. Maybe rubygem-rdoc helps?

See also broken dependencies:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809007

However I cant install ruby-rdoc:

Code: Select all

[root@F17AMD64 ~]# yum install ruby-rdoc
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
No package ruby-rdoc available.
Error: Nothing to do

Good night!

Thanks for the report! Yes, this was a first attempt.

Will post an update with more dependencies. More soon.

Thanks for the report! Yes, this was a first attempt.

np! Cant wait for Amahi 7 as F14 reached its EoL

Will post an update with more dependencies. More soon.

Dont forget to post the new Link. The Link above points to hdactl-4.2.0-1

Hi, the links above and the wiki page have been updated with better dependencies, though they may still be missing some. Also the wiki directions have been updated with more details, starting from a minimal F17 install, so they are tighter and adjusted to a minimal install.

Thanks for the feedback. I will see if I can produce an hda-platform that (maybe) works and perhaps come up with an hda-install.

Hmmm... had to force installation of hdactl. I followed the steps described in the wiki:

Code: Select all

[root@F17AMD64 ~]# rpm -ivh hdactl-4.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm 
error: Failed dependencies:
	hda-platform >= 6.0.0 is needed by hdactl-4.2.0-1.x86_64
[root@F17AMD64 ~]# rpm -Uvh --nodeps hdactl-4.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm 
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:hdactl                 ########################################### [100%]
[root@F17AMD64 ~]#

Maybe a installtion from git is a better idea?

However I run the test using the command rake spec

Code: Select all

[administrator@F17AMD64 amahi-7]$ rake spec

[administrator@F17AMD64 amahi-7]$

Where is the log file from this test?

Rebooting works fine and I can access Amahi on http://localhost:2000/
Lets see if Amahi is ready for installation

Btw:

mybe my ruby-install-log can help:

Code: Select all

[root@F17AMD64 ~]# cat /tmp/amahi-ruby-install.log

good job.

yes, we're working on these as we speak.

we may have an hda-platform later this week. we may need to introduce a new package.
(technically, the gems in amahi 7 are a lot and too risky to install on the fly.)

more soon ...

Hi!

Just read that tweet:
http://cpg.amahi.me/Public/Screenshots/ ... s-area.png

Its really great work, but what about adding more options into the users-area. Just like in freenas, where people can specifiy the SSH Public Key, Shell and enable/disable password logins.

Hello! update ... today was a day of MASSIVE PROGRESS!

We have now packaged Amahi 7 packages for the first time, though in a little clunky way.

Because of this we leave the Amahi Edge page behind and we moved the details to the Amahi 7 testing page.

Please report errors, typos, misunderstandings, etc.!

We have two major issues blocking us that were small in nature, but big in blocking. Apache apparently cannot see files in /tmp (and not because of SELinux!). So we had to do a number of noticeable changes.

Things ought to pick up in speed, though we will need to repackage things further, which may slow things out a little before things speed up in terms of releases.

Please test and report!! Have fun!
