OL3 fails to install

[kalxas]

Several build errors in the build log. After installation, only the home page is available (examples are missing)

[kalxas]

OpenLayers3 installation folder moved to /var/www/html/ol3 in order to keep the openlayers2 compatibility. The installer still fails to install the examples and docs (tested in build [12080])

Is there any log I can see? What is the error?

Note, I updagte the intall_openlayers script to work only with OL3. I saw you make a mix of OL2 and OL3, that nice, but overview and quickstart was modified too to explain only OL3.

Hi Antonio,

The logs are saved here, next to each nightly build:

​http://aiolos.survey.ntua.gr/gisvm/dev/

Please check the latest:

​http://aiolos.survey.ntua.gr/gisvm/dev/osgeo-live-nightly-build12081-i386-log.tar.gz

in file chroot-build.log

The goal of my modifications was to keep legacy openlayers demos in OSGeoLive from failing. I think it is better to keep only the OL2 JS code under localhost/openlayers and the new version under localhost/ol3 (with examples and docs only for the new version)

Best, Angelos

Looking at the log file it seems the OL3 installation fails because there is not installed npm command line tool (which depends on nodejs).

Installing npm dependencies... ./install_openlayers.sh: 99: ./install_openlayers.sh: npm: not found

Who can that dependency in the VM?

Hi Antonio,

Johan has provided a debian package for OL3: ​http://aiolos.survey.ntua.gr/gisvm/dev/libjs-openlayers3_3.1.1-1_all.deb

I will use this one to install the package to avoid installing npm (due to disk space etc) Let's see how that works out.

Best, Angelos

There is also an OL2 package uploaded in our ppa (currently fails to build, but I am sure it will work soon ;). Thanks Johan and Sebastian
