Patches and Ansible playbook to prepare Ubuntu based boxes for CoreMedia LiveContext-3 or CMS-9 - please use superseding repository 'coremedia-node-preparation'
coremedia-ubuntu-development
The patches in this workspace are prepared to patch a 1710 CMS-9 workspaces
to be deployable as a single node configuration on a Ubuntu based host.
The playbook in this repository is intended for preparation of CI nodes and
other hosts, which need to be able to build CoreMedia workspaces
for CoreMedia CMS 9 or LiveContext 3 without any other installation steps
necessary.
Find mirrors of this repository at gitlab and github.
We rely on the roles coremedia
for all coremedia hosts and cmdev
for
development hosts.
The role coremedia
provides the (not supported but happily working) OpenJDK
for users which do not want to include Oracle Java from the default CoreMedia
chef node configuration.
The role cmsdev
provides the needed development tools to build a workspace.
Install python on your node since otherwise ansible will not start.
The recipes in here also need a pre-installed ohai.
apt-get install python
apt-get install ohai
Configure relevant hosts in inventory.properties
or your global ansible hosts
file (if you haven’t done so).
Run with:
ansible-playbook -i inventory.properties setup.yml
This playbook provides:
for hosts in role coremedia
, and
for hosts in role cmdev
.
To deploy CoreMedia CMS-9 to Ubuntu based systems, you will need to apply the
patches provided in this workspace to the chef scripts in your workspace.
The usage of AJP is not strictly necessary, but the ability to configure the protocol
in use might still help.
We worked around the fact that hosts directly connected to the internet use an
IP-Address that is not on the default list of Apache Tomcat’s
Alternatively you could also change the default in conf/server.tml
during
deployment.
