Xen Orchestra - Community Edition - Installing with Yarn
-
Someone else has already reported this as an issue, the LIVE distro is slimmed down so much that it doesn't have these repo's included, but you can install them.
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2397273
Edit: Adding the multiverse repo with
sudo add-apt-repository multiverseallows the install to work without issue. -
I'm testing now with a possible patch for this, even though this is insane that Canonical would remove the multiverse repo from their mainline distro. . .
FFS.
-
I've added a repo addition to the start of the script, literally it just adds the multiverse repository and updates and upgrades the system while it's at it.
Of course this could cause issues with other issues so please test it with multiple distro's for me. If it causes issues, I'll simply add it as a troubleshooting step to make sure that the repo's are manually added prior to attempting the installation . . .
-
I've even made an issue on my own GH to find better ways of checking for and adding the repo if it's required.
-
@dustinb3403 See the first answer here for how to check for the pre-existence of the repository.
-
Ok I have a patch made besides that really ugly one that will check for the multiverse repo and add it, please test it on other distro's and let me know of any issues.
https://github.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer/pull/26
For now I'm going to back out the previous changes since this is a better approach.
Edit: It might fail if multiverse is already there. . . need to confirm more. But for now, going home to see my daughter!
-
Can others test this patch for me and let me know what issues you might encounter. I get the expected results here, but I've only been able to test with the mini 18.04.1-live Ubuntu iso so far.

I was able to install on 18.04.1, its says successfully installed but for whatever reason not able to access it via the browser. Ran the updated script as well, that was successful too, still not able to access via web browser. Its a fresh install. Very weird...

As it may help someone else:
I just made a new installation of XO Community (xo-server 5.32.2, xo-web 5.32.1) and found a problem with the web interface not fully working. As I use nginx as a reverse SSL proxy and HTTP authenticator I needed a custom .config.yamlIt happens that the included sample.config.yaml is not ready to be used (it's a sample, I get it). The mounts: section does not include the required files to be served.
Mine, which is a default installation worked with:mounts: '/': '/opt/xen-orchestra/packages/xo-web/dist' -

@dbeato
Shame on me for skipping that part, I lost about 1 hour. In my defense, their documentation is not consistent (so I was kind of lost).- Here it is recommending packages/xo-server/.xo-server.yaml
- I remember having used packages/xo-server/.config.yaml
- Now I'm using /etc/xo-server/config.yaml per https://xen-orchestra.com/docs/configuration.html
Thank you!

Also worth noting the installation script in the OP (from my GH) makes this change for you.
-
@DustinB3403
I used:
sudo bash
sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer/master/xo_install.sh | bashBut I had to make the change manually.
[Edit]
Mmm... I remember that something didn't work after I configured the reverse proxy and changed the listening port. I had lots of problems but discarded the nginx part as it was working flawlessly so I I tried to update (don't ask, the brain works weird past mid night).
After that I copied the sample config.So, disregard my post if you use the OP installer. For sure I messed something in my installation

As the original topic to install XO is quite long, and has a lot of history now is as good a time as any to create a new thread on how to both install and update your XO installations.
This has been tested against Ubuntu 16.10 with SSH access as the only added feature.
Here you can find the github repo where the installation script is kept (and updated to meet any new requirements of XOA)
To install
sudo bash
sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_installer/master/xo_install.sh | bashThat should be all you need, follow the on screen prompts and you'll have yourself a 100% functional XO installation within minutes.
To update and to enable some functionality, if you run the below you'll get the ability to import your configuration settings.
sudo bash
sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater/master/xo-update.sh | bash -s -- -fThere you go, simple and done.
Maybe a dumb question, but just to confirm: if I've already run both the installer script and the updater script above, can I update / upgrade XO by simply re-running
sudo bash
sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jarli01/xenorchestra_updater/master/xo-update.sh | bash -s -- -f?Thanks
