Demo build with Fedora storage

[Mike Lynch]

Hi all,

I've been trying to get a demo installation of ReDBox/Mint up and running on my own machine, with no luck so far.

The demo build of Mint from github - https://github.com/redbox-mint/mint-build-dev-local-fedora3 - starts up, but gives the error listing attached below when I visit in in a browser.

The main logfile is also getting regular error messages with a NullPointerException from the Fascinator's PluginManager class.

I've got Fedora (3.5) running OK, and have made sure that the system-config.json is configured with the right URL, admin user and PID prefix. I feel like there's some other configuration or initialisation required which I haven't been able to find in the online documentation.

I appreciate that it's a busy time for the developers with 1.6 coming out. It might be better if I work on something else for now and wait for a 1.6 release which has the Fedora plugin.

Thanks

Mike

Hi Mike,

 

We are using Fedora 3.4 as storage for both RedBox and Mint. Following is the settings we require for Redbox/Mint to point to the Fedora server.

 

"storage": {
        "type": "fedora3",
        "fedora3": {
            "url": "http://servername:8080/fedora",
            "username": "username",
            "password": "password",
            "namespace": "mint"
        }
    },

You can check if the RedBox/Mint is connection to the Fedora instance or not by checking harvest.log file under .../mint/home/logs/ directory. The harvest.log file should say like following if it can connect to Fedora.

 

2013-03-12 16:10:34,034 INFO   FascinatorHome       Set Fascinator home to 'C:\tools\tf2\mint\home'

Hi Zakir -

Thanks - I double-checked the config file and there was an error in the "storage" setting of the original build, which had the "storage" section nested inside an extra "storage" clause.  I've fixed this and it seems to be up and running now.

Cheers

Mike
