install eucalyptus on centOS error

Question

I'm trying to install eucalyptus on centOS 6.2. I followed the steps for installing eucalyptus on centos on the official website.

When I came to the point to install eucalyptus, I chose to use rpm. It's the chapter on the website. 上的“ ”一章。 The command I type is:

rpm -Uvh aoetools-21-1.el4.x86_64.rpm \
 euca-axis2c-1.6.0-1.x86_64.rpm \
 euca-rampartc-1.3.0-1.x86_64.rpm \
 vblade-14-1mdv2008.1.x86_64.rpm \

 python25-devel-2.5.1-bashton1.x86_64.rpm\
 python25-libs-2.5.1-bashton1.x86_64.rpm

and the error I got:

How could I solve this problem? I hope someone has been trapped in the same situation as I am.

Answer 1

It looks like the dependencies did not get resolved which is why the installation did not proceed. I also faced exactly the same problem, so here is the solution I found. You will have to download a few RPMs in order to install the dependencies required.

My system's architecture is i386. Replace by X86_64

1. libcrypto.so.6() and libssl.so.6() : To get these files, you will have to install the RPM openssl098e-17.el6.centos.2..rpm

2. libdb-4.3.so() : Install compat-db43-4.3-24-15.el6..rpm

3. libreadline.so.5() : Install compat-readline5-5.2-17.1.el6..rpm
4. libexpat.so.0() : Install compat-expat1-1.95.8-8.el6..rpm

After installing these dependencies, go for the regular installation of the RPMs.

Answer 2

eucalyptus 2.0 do not support centos 6.2. Centos 5 uses xen while centos 6 uses kvm. You will have to wait for eucalyptus 3.1 for this.

Answer 3

Also if you'd like to quickly test Eucalyptus 3.1 and deploy a cloud in under 30 minutes, you can download Eucalyptus FastStart , which runs on CentOS 6.2 and KVM on a minimum of 2 machines.

You can watch this short FastStart video that walks you through the installation.

Answer 4

You were asking about Eucalyptus 2 but 3.1 is out now and KVM is supported. It should be much easier to install Eucalyptus 3.1 on Centos 6 . Here is a snippet from the install docs:

Install the KVM driver appropriate to your hardware.

For systems with Intel processors:

 modprobe kvm_intel modprobe vhost_net
