actinia demo fails

[kalxas]

Debian packages needed for focal:

​https://github.com/mundialis/actinia_core/releases/tag/0.99.8

[neteler]

Would it be possible to switch to ​https://github.com/mundialis/actinia_core/releases/tag/0.99.15 ?

[kalxas]

yes, thanks for the update!

[kalxas]

packages now available in nightly ppa

[kalxas]

Package now available, demo fails to start

[neteler]

Thanks for packaging it! So I found it at ​https://launchpad.net/~osgeolive/+archive/ubuntu/nightly and tried in docker for a first error analysis:

docker pull ubuntu:20.04
docker images
docker run -it --rm f643c72bc252 /bin/bash

In docker:

apt-get install software-properties-common
add-apt-repository ppa:osgeolive/nightly
apt-get update

# install actinia
apt-get install python3-actinia-core

# install GRASS GIS (needed for ace - actinia commmand execution tool)
apt-get install grass-dev wget

Testing with latest quickstart (​https://osgeo.github.io/OSGeoLive-doc/en/quickstart/actinia_quickstart.html)

# test "ace" in GRASS GIS with actinia server
mkdir -p /opt/grassdata $HOME/.grass7/addons/scripts/
grass -c epsg:4326 /opt/grassdata/longlat4326

# get ace script
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mundialis/actinia_core/master/scripts/ace -O $HOME/.grass7/addons/scripts/ace
chmod a+x $HOME/.grass7/addons/scripts/ace

ace --help

Time to test the connection:

# credentials from https://actinia.mundialis.de
export ACTINIA_USER='demouser'
export ACTINIA_PASSWORD='gu3st!pa55w0rd'
export ACTINIA_URL='https://actinia.mundialis.de/latest'

# list locations on server
ace --list-locations

# list mapsets in location nc_spm_08
ace --location nc_spm_08 --list-mapsets

Up to here it works in docker.

What's missing

• some maps are (after mundialis server upgrade) not yet visible to "demouser" which we need to fix
• same round of tests then to be done with latest test-OSGeoLive iso/VM

Fixed on server.

• same round of tests then to be done with latest test-OSGeoLive iso/VM (from ​http://aiolos.survey.ntua.gr/gisvm/dev/)

A bug was discovered in the JSON parser in GRASS GIS.

Addressed in ​https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/1252

[neteler]

All updated!

• GRASS GIS PR merged and actinia server redeployed.
• actinia quickstart updated: ​PR-doc:656

[kalxas]

what are the next steps? should this ticket remain open?

[neteler]

I think it can be closed for now - doing so.

Thanks again for re-packaging actinia, @kalxas!

[kalxas]

Just tried to startup actinia in alpha 5 and still getting an error.

[neteler]

Do you have by chance the error message?

(I shall download alpha 5 and try as well)

[neteler]

There is the python_json_logger dependency missing, see

​https://github.com/mundialis/actinia_core/blob/master/requirements.txt#L20

pip install python_json_logger

[kalxas]

so we need to add a debian package for it

[kalxas]

Debian package created and dependency list updated

[kalxas]

Just tested 14.0rc1 iso:

The actinia launcher from Geospatial menu does not work. Actinia only launches from the terminal.

@neteler can you please test?

[neteler]

I downloaded osgeolive-14.0rc1-amd64.iso but don't see any menu entry for actinia. In which category should it be?

[kalxas]

The menu launcher is in the Web Services category "Start Actinia"

[kalxas]

Fix committed:

​https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/commit/29ab0e4a84aec6a5aba42bf41835aae29273e1d6

[neteler]

Great, thanks a lot.

BTW: I have updated the quickstart: ​https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/pull/702

[kalxas]

The docs are frozen now, those changes would need us to unfreeze and give time for translations.

[neteler]

I see. The problem is that the "old" way does not work. The changes are basically the commands only (or could be reduced to that) which will not be translated anyway.

[kalxas]

Good idea. Lets wait for some feedback from Vicky before breaking the pull request in 2 parts.

[kalxas]

Just looking at the quickstart and it seems to not be using the local actinia installation at all. Could a part be added (in the future?) to run examples without internet connection?

[neteler]

Replying to kalxas:

That's correct. For this a deployment like would be needed (like illustrated in ​https://github.com/mundialis/actinia_core/tree/master/docker).

Could a part be added (in the future?) to run examples without internet connection?

I'd say yes.
