    Error installing JON 3.2.0 on win32

    ocstjf

      I cannot get jon-server-3.2.0.ER3 running on Windows Server 2008 (32-bit).  I've had no problems with it on RHEL 6.4(x86_64).   This is just a test environment,

      postgresql is running, storage & server will be on the same host.   This new version takes a lot more memory which was the first problem but I've got past that.  But

      I cannot seem to get past this error:

       

      C:\opt\jon-server-3.2.0.ER3>bin\rhqctl install --start

      I've searched a lot and found https://community.jboss.org/thread/230190 but that wasn't quite the same nor was it resolved.   Any suggestions would be appreciated!

          I think this is likely an issue with host resolution of the VPN address on the win box.  I would suggest, prior to install, edit rhq-storage.properties and set:

           

          rhq.storage.hostname=127.0.0.1

          rhq.storage.seeds=127.0.0.1

           

          See if that helps out.  Also, there are more recent spins of JON, ping me (jshaughn) in IRC if you're looking for something newer (although I don't think that is your problem).

            Thanks for the reply.  That changed the behavior a bit, but still no joy.  Same message but just with 127.0.0.1 instead of IP.

             

            So I tried installing more incrementally:

             

            bin\rhqctl install --storage --start  // this started the agent, but not storage manager

            bin\rhqctl install --storage // this installed the storage manager, but didn't start it

            bin\rhqctl start --storage  // now both agent and storage are running

            bin\rhqctl install --server // now everything is installed, but storage & server are not running

            bin\rhqctl start  // everything is now running!

             

            C:\opt\jon-server-3.2.0.ER3>bin\rhqctl status

            13:53:37,048 INFO  [org.jboss.modules] JBoss Modules version 1.2.2.Final-redhat-1

              Running: Yes

             

            Success, I can log into 127.0.0.1:7080/coregui, see agent running, etc.

             

            This installation process sure is fragile!  Is there a more reliable, step-by-step process documented somewhere?
