As i haven't found any preBuild AMI's Let's move here. IMA: Zend PHP WebDev with 3+ years of Zend.. working with aFrogLeap.com Team. I'm a php-dev but i've been granted Admining job.. and Server strategist. my Beloved ServerPlatform is freeBSD, however it does not run well in Clouds(not yet). i've got used to Debian, and i don't know "the biggest difference" between Ubuntu and Debian (as i know one is built on top of the other). I'll be writing some questions here.. and, probably, answers. I'm reading http://wiki.scalr.net/display/docs/Open-Source+Installation and trying to install scalr on a "private" server.
in the end i want to get scalr running on: Debian Squeeze, nginx, php5-fpm(let's stick to 5.3.X.. but i can try 5.4.X.. there is still time) teh Setup. i've got an Amazon Instance m1.small (let's start from it) with Debian Squeeze 6.0.1. As i'm in europe i've used ami-0f01367b from http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/AmazonEC2Image nginx + php5-fpm: let's use latest backported and add php5-fpm: echo "deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/squeeze-backports.list echo "deb http://packages.dotdeb.org squeeze all" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotdeb.list echo "deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org squeeze all" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotdeb.list wget http://www.dotdeb.org/dotdeb.gpg cat dotdeb.gpg | apt-key add - apt-get update then apt-get -t squeeze-backports install "nginx" apt-get install php5-cli php5-common php5-suhosin php5-fpm so far so good.. i'll be configuring everything at a later stage. now. i've got into trouble. rrdtool :) "vanilla" scalr 3.5 installation manual says it needs rrdtool 1.3.X(latest found 1.3.9), and a "special" build of php_rrdtool. Now i'm stuck in compiling old rrdtool with some wierd dependencies that do not want to be linked to other sources.. so i want to drop that idea. and stick to KISS (Keep It Simple, S*) Neighboring discussion states that "vanilla" could be patched to use latest php_rrdtool so let's see. https://github.com/ssrini/scalr - HAS it patched.. but https://github.com/scalr-community/scalr-community is, however, NOT. so, Question IS: Can i use latest rrdtool + latest php_rrdtool + patched scalr? i.e. is it likely to break something "inside" scalr? (i am able to read and manually patch/fix php code with no problem) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "scalr-discuss" group.
