Re: [libvirt-users] oVirt setup issues

Hi all, as suggested in a prior mail, I was now trying out oVirt - however, on a non-Redhat/Debian system - and ran into huge issues primary due to the lag of information / documenation. So here my assumptions: * oVirt is a web application based on JBoss application server. * VDSM is an agent to run on every hypervisor (or also VM?) * nothing else needed? (despite jboss, java-jdk-1.6, python-2.7, maven-2.2) I tried following the install-from-source guides for oVirt and failed at a compilation error. # cd $OVIRT_ENGINE_SRCDIR # make [.....] [INFO] Compiling 186 source files to /opt/ovirt/src/ovirt-engine/backend/manager/modules/dal/target/classes [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Compilation failure /opt/ovirt/src/ovirt-engine/backend/manager/modules/dal/src/main/java/org/ovirt/engine/core/dal/dbbroker/PGHack.java:[9,7] error: PGHack is not abstract and does not override abstract method getParentLogger() in CommonDataSource [...] There are no remote branches nor tags that looked like "stable" that I could test on, too. So finally (the not favoured version), I tried putting a Fedora 16 netinstall into a KVM on my hypervisor-test-node and installed everything in there, again, following some guide from the upstream site. Since it did not compile anything, the install worked well, but I could not add my hypervisor node as a host, in fact, it complained about some tools not being able to be installed. What tools? VDSM? how am I supposed to "cleanly" install it if not as promoted on the install guide? :( In the end, I am having nothing working, feeling a little bit sad about the possibly wasted time, so I hope you guys can give me a hint on how to deal with VDSM (if that's what I am missing here) and how to deal with the compile error when installing from source.
