Howto: Install openQRM 5.1 on Debian Wheezy
This HowTo is about how to install the openQRM Datacenter Management and Cloud Computing platform version 5.1 on Debian 7 aka Wheezy. It is
the starting point for a set of openQRM HowTos explaining different Use-cases with the focus on virtualization, automation and cloud computing.
Requirements
One physical Server. Alternatively the installation can be also done within a Virtual Machineat least 1 GB of Memoryat least 100 GB of Diskspaceoptional VT for Intel CPUs or AMD-V for AMD CPUs (Virtualization Technology) enabled in the Systems BIOS so that the openQRMServer can run Virtual Machines later
Install Debian WheezyInstall a minimal Debian Wheezy on a physical Server. During the installation select 'manual network' configuration and provide a static IP address.
In this Howto we will use 192.168.178.5/255.255.255.0 as the IP configuration for the openQRM Server system.
In the partitioning setup please select 'manual' and create one partition for the root-filesystem, one as swap space plus a dedicated partition to be
used as storage space for the Virtual Machines later. In the configuration of the dedicated storage partition select 'do not use'.
In the software selection dialog select just 'SSH-Server'
After the installation finished please login to the system and update its packaging system as 'root'
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
Please notice!
In the recent Debian updates the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini configuration derective "disable_functions" changed and includes now a bunch of
functions disabled by default. Please open /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini in your favourite editor and search for "disable_functions". Then remove ALL
functions from the "disable_functions" PHP configuration paramter for Apache!
It should look likt this:
disable_functions = ""
Then restart Apache by
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
