Xen Orchestra on Ubuntu 15.10 - Complete installation instructions

@olivier What's the best way to know what Node and NPM version should be used?

Ok, here's the updated playbook. Just add your hostname in /etc/ansible/hosts and your username in the variables file, it will do the rest.

@anonymous Experience ^^ (if the build fails).

In general, when there is a new big release of Node, dependencies can't catch the breaking changes for a time. That's why Node 5 broke the build for a time.

You can use the LTS version of Node to be safe: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v4.2.0/

Hopefully LTS means more for Node than it does for ubuntu.

@scottalanmiller hahaha

I lost track of if @anonymous is using CentOS or Ubuntu now..

Here is the guide for nodejs on CentOS 7

I updated that this morning to cover Ubuntu too. Tested and working there as well.

It should also work on MacOS and Windows ^^

But... who cares

olivier

Build should be back on track on next-release branch.

From the individual folders of xo-server and xo-web

git checkout next-release

git fetch; git pull

olivier

If you want to stick on stable, a workaround would be npm i [email protected]

DustinB3403

At @olivier this is what I'm getting now, attempting this install.

scottalanmiller

Same here, even after installing GULP.

DustinB3403

@scottalanmiller Are you running stable as well, or "next release" ?

I'm running from your how-to

olivier

That's because the install process went bad, due to lodash issue (we reported it here)

So before the npm i, do a npm i [email protected].

DustinB3403

Yeah I got it sorted, getting the updated guide sorted out

Thank you

you are the man, you know that! Not only reporting on your own pages, but coming here and reporting as well... that's just awesome!

Okay, here we go. I took @DustinB3403's working process and turned it into a script. I'm going to blow everything away and see if this works from scratch. Just take this, copy into a file like /opt/xoinstaller.sh, chmod +x /opt/xoinstaller.sh and then run it /opt/xoinstaller.sh

#!/bin/bash
cd /opt
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_5.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install --yes nodejs
curl -o /usr/local/bin/n https://raw.githubusercontent.com/visionmedia/n/master/bin/n
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/n
n stable
node -v
npm -v
sudo apt-get install --yes build-essential redis-server libpng12-dev git python-minimal
git clone -b stable https://github.com/vatesfr/xo-server
git clone -b stable https://github.com/vatesfr/xo-web
cd xo-server
sudo npm install && npm run build
cp xo-server/sample.config.yaml xo-server/.xo-server.yaml
sed /mounts/a\\"    '/': '/opt/xo-web/dist'" xo-server/.xo-server.yaml
cd /opt/xo-web
sudo npm i [email protected]
sudo npm install
sudo npm run build
cd /opt/xo-server
sudo npm start
