NethServer v7-alpha2

[giacomo (Giacomo Sanchietti)]

Work in NS 7 is going on, check this page: http://wiki.nethserver.org/doku.php?id=developer:nethserver_7_packages

I would like to highlight a couple of issues found:

• httpd configuration has been completely refactored because CentOS 7 now ships with Apache 2.4, probably any web application will need some modification; see: https://github.com/NethServer/dev/issues/5012
• ownCloud 8 is HELL! I spent about 4 hours on it, I can make it work by hand, but automatic installation still have problems. Anyone want to continue the work? @alep

[Jim]

This type of web application will continue to be ship In a “traditional” way or in a docker container?

Are you working on owncloud 8 without saying anything? Here we are, me and @alep: THE OWNCLOUD TEAM

For now with the traditional way, but if we will have applications with a lot of dependencies (like Ruby on Rails) we will probably ship them inside a container.

Owncloud 8 is up and running!
Many asked for it, anyone want to try and report feedback?

Great! It’s definitely in my todolist! /cc @fasttech

From gordon ramsay as well!

Where do I start? @alefattorini @giacomo

[giacomo (Giacomo Sanchietti)]

@fasttech

Where do I start? @alefattorini @giacomo

Just install NethServer 7 following this guide:
http://wiki.nethserver.org/doku.php?id=developer:nethserver_7_kickstart

At the end:

yum install nethserver-owncloud

Have fun!

[fasttech]

@giacomo my last attempts I used the minimal iso, not the minimal-1511, I wonder if that was the basis for the issues I had with it.

[alefattorini (Alessio Fattorini)]

1511 is better, try to use it as described in the document.

[fasttech]

I ran into this last time, is anyone interested in looking at this flow and tell me what I’m doing wrong?
This is basically what I ended up doing with the minimal iso last time but this time it’s not working. I’m obviously missing something.

It’s rather puzzling, I can’t reproduce that “Cannot open: …nethserver-release-7-0.1.11.g66e6835.ns7.noarch.rpm. Skipping.”

Moreover wget downloads the RPM, so I suppose your network works properly.

I’d try “localinstall” from the downloaded RPM in /tmp, like

yum localinstall /tmp/nethserver-release-7-0.1.11.g66e6835.ns7.noarch.rpm

That’s it.

@giacomo

Many asked for it, anyone want to try and report feedback?

@alefattorini

Great! It’s definitely in my todolist! /cc @fasttech

All I can say is… pretty!

[giacomo (Giacomo Sanchietti)]

You can now start/stop/restart services from the web interface. What do you think @Ctek?

Pretty nice integrated graphs. @Jim

Edit: Also, graphs are directly accessible from port 980, you don’t need anymore to forward port 80.

[alefattorini (Alessio Fattorini)]

Yeahh! Can we close these discussions?

Start/stop services by web interface

I thought to extend the actual Services page to enable start/stop, but there was no general consensus. Probably there’s no real need to manually start/stop services.

What do you think about good graphs monitoring tool?

Hello, I already said, I come from ClearOS, I’ve try this distro because it`s was my first distro of choice when I was managing to upgrade my router. Before, installing my Microserver, I had a Ubiquity Edgerouter POE 5 ports… This router is an wonderfull routeur with linux based system named EdgeOS, a derivative a Vyatta, itself a derivative of Debian. EdgeOS is not only powerful, it has a beautiful and intuitive interface, but further this has good graphics monitoring tools, like this: [ima…

[Jim]

This day is a really good day
.
Someone can mark this date in the NethServer history

Don’t close these discussions… We must celebrate

[stephdl (Stéphane de Labrusse)]

Interesting , really interesting @giacomo, I searched recently how to embed a page on port 80 into the server-manager, I have now a solution to my issue…fine

This can bring idea for phpMyAdmin by example

[Jim]

Yes, a well polished interface mean a good feeling, a impressive good experience for the end user.

It’s really important, to spread the world

[Ctek (Bogdan C)]

Really like it! Thanx guys!
This “small” features are improving our life every day
