    Installing runtime overlord help pls

    dhartford

      Hi all,

      Trying to install Overlord RTGov 1.0.0.final onto eap 6.1 on Windows.

       

      process taken: set JBOSS_HOME = c:\jboss\jboss-eap-6.1\,  mvn install from the overlord folder, several errors, ${env.JBOSS_HOME} listed in folder locations.

       

      Also get when trying to run standalone.bat from jboss:

      Caused by: org.jboss.modules.ModuleNotFoundException: org.overlord.commons.overlord-commons-auth:main

       

      (there is no listing under modules/system/layer/soa/org/....overlord missing)

       

       

       

      I see a mix of Maven and Ant build files, so this is a bit challenging to dig through to find/fix the issues I'm running into, so asking if anyone has successfully installed and using this overlord deploy. Interested trying out the gadget-server and how it works with existing deployed Switchyard projects.

       

      thanks!

          Hi Darren

           

          Would it be possible for you to start again from a fresh environment, install switchyard 1.0.0.Final onto EAP 6.1 final, and then install rtgov again - capturing the console log from the "mvn install", so that I can see what might be going wrong. I've just tried it on a windows box, and it worked fine.

           

          One thing - the overlord commons component is downloaded as part of the installation, so its possible this did not work correctly, if the module was missing. Although I would have expected the installation to abort if it had failed to download this component.

           

          In terms of the Gadget Server, we are taking a different direction for the UI in RTGov 2.x, so will no longer be continuing work on the Gadget Server sub-project. This sub-project is based on the Apache Shindig project, so if you require this type of functionality, you may find more community support from this apache project.

           

          Regards

          Gary

            Thanks Gary for the quick response, and the feedback around gadget-server and the shift to Shindig, that was key information :-)

             

            I was specifically looking for UI/dashboard to 'present' what the services are doing to executive/management folk, so I'll hold off and see how things are going on the 2.x branch.

              Attempting RTGov 2.0-SNAPSHOT from today 3/4/2014 on eap 6.1, Switchyard 1.1, some gotcha's to help other ppl:

               

              1) add in JAVA_OPTS  -XX:MaxPermSize=256M, otherwise will permgen

               

              2) standalone/configuration/standalone.xml, <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:ejb3:... segment (source: Re: Can not deploy MDB because of service jboss.ejb.default-resource-adapter-name-service not found_


              <mdb> 

                <resource-adapter-ref resource-adapter-name="hornetq-ra"/> 

                <bean-instance-pool-ref pool-name="mdb-strict-max-pool"/> 

              </mdb> 


              3)  STUCK -- ActiveCollectionManager


              "SEVERE [org.overlord.rtgov.internal.acs.loader.jee.JEEACSLoader] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 52) Failed to obtain reference to ActiveCollectionManager"

               

              There's an old Fuse bug about this, but no solution: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1015363, [RTGOV-287] Accessor wait interval needs to be configurable - JBoss Issue Tracker

               

              If anyone knows a workaround, great!  This is hot off SNAPSHOT, so not expecting anything, but would be nice to see the new 2.0 UI in the works :-)

                You need to use the standalone-full.xml profile, as this includes support for hornetq/JMS.

                The default timeout is now set to 5 minutes, and is configurable based on an environment variable (not documented yet ) - does this error occur after 5 mins?

                 

                If anyone knows a workaround, great!  This is hot off SNAPSHOT, so not expecting anything, but would be nice to see the new 2.0 UI in the works :-)

                 

                The new UI is currently being developed in a separate repo: Governance/rtgov-ui · GitHub

                 

                The top level readme contains information about building and deploying the project to EAP, as well as using a development server to just test out the UI.
