I installed Eucalyptus front end components (from binary packages) on Opensuse 11.3. On another Opensuse 11.3 machine (running Xen) I installed the node controller. I could log into the web interface at the front end, configured things in the admin account and also created another account.
However after rebooting the front end, the web interface is broken. All the Eucalyptus services are running, apache is running, the ports are open. Yet instead of the login screen I used to get, now I get a list of 4 directories:
Directory: /
META-INF/ 4096 bytes Mar 9, 2011 4:53:19 PM
WEB-INF/ 4096 bytes Mar 9, 2011 4:53:19 PM
extensions/ 4096 bytes Mar 1, 2011 6:33:52 PM
themes/ 4096 bytes Mar 1, 2011 6:33:52 PM
There is no content, only few empty subdirectories.
How is that possible, I only rebooted the front end. I restart the cc and cloud controller many times and they are restarted without any error. I rebooted the front end machine a million times, and I always get the same error.
I am truly lost, any suggestion on what may cause this error and how to solve it?
Thanks!
I solved, I found a forum post here where someone had the exact same issue in Opensuse 11.3.
I solved by deleting the directory /var/run/eucalyptus/webapp and restarting the cloud and cluster controllers.
I think its a bug with Opensuse 11.3 but anyway deleting that one dir solved everything
I was also faced with this issue and was finding some solutions around there. Fortunately, I was able to find out this post :D And thank you very much for sharing these valuable information.
And FYI:
I think this is not a case with the Opensuse as you mentioned. Because, am using Debian squeeze and I was also met the same problem. Any way thanks for sharing.... :)
Hi Rossana,
Thanks for posting this solution. I had the same problem that whenever my frontend got restarted (basically euca services are resarted); the frontend webapp stopped working and started showing directory listing.
I have been running Euca 2.x on Fedora 14; so I don't think its an OS related issue; I think its a Eucalyptus bug actually that upon shutdown it doesn't clean up webapp directory probably.
By removing /var/run/eucalyptus/webapp, my front starts working normally :)
Cheers
Omer
Thanks all!
I'm running Eucalyptus on Debian Sqeeze and had same problem, now I solved it!
Thank you! :D
