Re: Unable to install CloudStack 4.0 (build 140) on vSphere5.1 using burbank-systemvm-08012012.ova
Take a look at http://cloudstack.apache.org/downloads.html, use the repo for centOS as stated here: Getting CloudStack from a Package Repository For easier installation or upgrades, the official source code release has been supplemented by community members who have chosen to provide package repositories. DEB package repository: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/ubuntu RPM package repository: http://cloudstack.apt-get.eu/rhel/4.0/ Instructions for using these community provided repositories can be found in the Configure package repositorysection of the Installation Guide. Then do the following, based on your os: http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.0.0-incubating/html/Installation_Guide/configure-package-repository.html I disable gpgcheck (gpgcheck=0) and skip the key import step. I'm pretty sure Dave Nalley just facepalmed in my general direction.
