marmalade GmbH Development-VM

This repository includes a generic VM to develop applications in PHP.

Setup

Make sure you have vagrant and virtualbox installed on your machine.

Setup the structure like

ROOTDIR
- config
-- vm
--- config.yaml [copy from THIS_REPO/config.yaml.dist with your settings]
- vm
-- HERE_THE_CONTENT_OF_THIS_REPO

To mount your project files into the VM with the use of shared folders, you can specify them in your config.yaml. The config.yaml.dist contains a full multi-node example configuration.

You can use this snippet to create the correct folder-structure.

mkdir marmalade_vm
cd marmalade_vm
mkdir -p config/vm
mkdir web
git clone https://github.com/marmaladeDE/Development-VM.git vm
cp vm/config.yaml.dist config/vm/config.yaml

Issues and Help

SSH connection fails

Error:

If you get an error like

  default: SSH auth method: private key
  default: Warning: Connection timeout. Retrying...

you've probably have

• a firewall that blocks it
• an anti virus program with an firewall running
• Hyper-V running and blocking

Solution:

Turn it off an test it again.

Forwarding Ports

If you want to access your box from other computers in the network, you might want to forward Ports from the Box. Thats easy.

Solution:

Specify the array vm.forwards like shown in the following example whre we forward the ports 80 and 9200

    forwards:
      - apache:
        host: 80
        guest: 80
      - elasticsearch
        host: 9200
        guest: 9200

Or the shorthand version:

    forwards:
      - apache: { host: 80, guest: 80 }
      - elasticsearch: { host: 9200, guest: 9200 }

Elasticsearch gets not installed

Do you get problems with installing elasticsearch? There are some know issues:

• You must specify a exact version number

Solution:

Elasticsearch veriosn must be set with three digits like 1.4.2, 1.7.6, 2.4.2 or similar. Only Elasticsearch 2.1.0 and up is supported. Take a look to https://github.com/jprante/elasticsearch-analysis-decompound#decompound-plugin-for-elasticsearch for a full list of supported ES versions.
