Can I install Appscale on Windows 7

[Adewole Ogunyadeka]

Hi all, I have been trying to install Appscale on my windows, there doesnt seem to be a way. I have virtual box already installed.

Hello Adewole,

This should work given you can run vagrant and virtualbox. I would recommend the following instructions:

https://github.com/AppScale/appscale/wiki/AppScale-on-VirtualBox

If you cannot get it to work with vagrant, you can also download the VirtualBox image from http://downloads.appscale.com and start the image using the VirtualBox GUI. Once the image has started, log into the virtual machine and follow the instructions on running the tools:

https://github.com/AppScale/appscale/wiki/Managing-Apps%2C-Machines%2C-and-Logs

Thanks,

Raj

Hi Raj,

I had earlier seen the link you gave me but it somehow doest explain on which machine to install what.Steps 1 and 2 are very clear. Somehow it seems something is missing from step 2. How can I verify that I have the latest Vagrant using the script given ($ vagrant -v

Vagrant version 1.6.3) when I am running on windows. How do I Register the image with Vagrant - on which machine? This scripts given (mkdir -p ~/appscale; cd ~/appscale;vagrant init appscale/releases) is a linux script  when I am running windows. 

Pardon me for these questions but I am a novice in this area. Raj, would I also be able to contact you directly as I am doing a PhD and would want to integrate my ideas using Appscale. In the meantime, I am downloading Appscale virtual box to see if I can use image file on virtual box

Hi Adewole,

You should be using the command line prompt in Windows:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/open-a-command-prompt-window

If you are unable to use a command line, I would suggest going the route of using the VirtualBox GUI. You should  be able to load in the image once you've downloaded it and start it as a running instance.

http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch01.html

Glad to answer any general questions on this list (helpful for the community). Any questions you have that are specific to your project you can email directly.

Thanks,

Raj

Hello Raj,

I am trying to use the appscale now on ubuntu and after following the steps on (https://github.com/AppScale/appscale/wiki/AppScale-on-VirtualBox) I get to the point where I type the "vagrant up" command and I keep getting an error message: unable to get local issuer certificate.

Hi Adewole,

Are you able to start any VM at all? Make sure you can start the provided Precise Ubuntu VM by vagrant before proceeding.

I get the following error message "The machine with the name 'hashicorp/precise64' was not found configured for this Vagrant environment.".

Hello Raj, I though I should just post a screen shot of the error I am getting. I have installed virtual box but I still get a message saying 'appscale/releases' could not be found. The screenshot above shows the message

Hi Adewole,

There was a problem with the URL which should be fixed now.

Please try `vagrant up` again and let us know.
