      Description

      Dear Support,

      I have tried installing wirecloud 0.6.2 using a windows 8 Virtualbox
      It works but I am having problem uploading the widget from local
      harddrive to the installed wirecloud in CentOS 6.4

      In my test, I have tried wirecloud 0.6.2 and 0.6.5
      It seems that the version of Djongo is very important for the test e.g.
      0.6.5 is not working with Djongo 1.5.10. I am not sure what version of
      Djongo will works with Wirecloud 0.6.5 and higher e.g. 0.7

      Right now the installation information is incomplete and not up to date.
      I have not tested if it is necessary to install additional pluggin for
      the wirecloud.

      (a) Please let me know what could be the address of marketplace which
      the installed wirecloud could access to
      (b) Do you know what are the production version of wirecloud used now at
      Fi_Ware Lab?
      (c) Please kindly direct me to the right person who could help me on the
      installation of wirecloud

          Dear Kah,

          first of all, thanks for your interest in WireCloud,

          I have tried installing wirecloud 0.6.2 using a windows 8 Virtualbox

          Can you elaborate a bit more the problem you are facing uploading widgets?

          In my test, I have tried wirecloud 0.6.2 and 0.6.5

          Wirecloud 0.6.5 should work with Django 1.5.10, but... let me make some
          tests, I will send you another mail providing information about the status
          of using Wirecloud 0.6.5 with Django 1.5.10.

          Right now the installation information is incomplete and not up to date. I

          CentOS 6.4 usually install some outdated version of some of the python
          dependencies used by WireCloud. I recommend you to use virtualenv for
          installing Wirecloud in such OS.

          (a) Please let me know what could be the address of marketplace which the

          a) The only public instance of the marketplace is the one available at
          FIWARE Lab. Take into account that for using it, you will need to enable
          the IdM integration and use the FIWARE Lab's IdM server.
          b) is a release candidate of WireCloud 0.7.0
          c) I am the main developer of WireCloud, so feel free for asking me
          anything. Anyway, I will appreciate if you ask "generic" questions on
          StackOverflow using the fiware-wirecloud
          <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/fiware-wirecloud> tag .

          Best regards,
          Álvaro

          Dear Dr Javier Soriano,

          *[Basically, I hope FI Ware developers can provide us with a one stop
          VirtualBox image with Orion and Wirecloud]*

          I was referred to write to you from Fiware-tech-help.
          http://catalogue.fiware.org/enablers/application-mashup-wirecloud/downloads

          Fi-Ware-Lab is in the transition to apply more restricted use only to
          valid users due to challenge in maintaining the cloud service to
          increasing FI-Ware users.

          We would like to promote more users using Fi-Ware at Frankfurt am Main
          through our Health 2.0 Frankfurt local community.

          We have been testing how to install FI-Ware to Windows 7/8 virtualboxes.

          I have downloaded APPS-wirecloud 3.4.2 from https://forge.fiware.org (
          which corresponds to wirecloud 0.6.2). I now see that there is also the
          option of
          http://catalogue.fiware.org/enablers/application-mashup-wirecloud/downloads
          to get 3.4.2.
          Furthermore, there is also the version from wirecloud 0.6.3 to 0.7 form
          python site.

          In the beginning, I use python PIP to install Djongo and I get 1.7+
          version and this causes lot of problem. Then I try to figure out how to
          install Only Djongo 1.5.10 and this helps. Later, I realize that this
          does not work with wirecloud 0.6.5 and then I revert to wirecloud 0.6.2
          and I finally able to get the wirecloud interface working within CentOS
          6.4 using internal Firefox brower.

          For some reasons, I am not able to use Window browser to connect to the
          virtualBox CentOS using Windows e.g.Chrome. I can do that with ITBox of
          Fire-Ops but for some reason, I can not

          Other issues
          Orion Context Broker needs CentOS 64 bits ( I guess), ITBox installation
          remove Window Desktop support, Wirecloud can use I guess CentOS 32bits.

          FYI: I am still getting an overview of FI-Ware technology, some of the
          terms I used may not reflect a correct understanding of this promising
          technology but a steep learning curve for new users.

          ISSUES:

          => with the dawn of Fi-Ware Mundus and the vision to spread FI-Ware, in
          my view, having ready to use one stop solution to distribute VirtualBOX
          e..g wirecloud.vid or ova is an important step to realize the potential
          of Fi Ware

          => This will save time for people like to us to further test and
          demonstrate wirecloud independent of the new restrictions of FI Ware Lab
          ussage.

          => For every new release of Wirecloud, hopefully there will also be
          corresponding working virtualbox distribution.

          ==> Ideally we want to see FI-Ware-Lab within your laptop. One Virtual
          box distribution with Orion Context Broker and Wirecloud and additional
          necessary modules.

          ===> response to specific questions from Alvaro Arranz below

          => Very excited to see wirecloud running in CentOS virtual box within my
          laptop.
          => The challenge of using a virtual environment to install wirecloud,
          using a e.g. wirecloud user, making sure that when python is installed,
          it is using the virtual environment. Many of the instruction is based on
          Ubuntu e.g. Sudo Apt install. However in CentOS it is yum install.
          I am still learning CentOS and sometimes I am not sure when to use yum
          install and when to use python PIP or Easy_install. Because sometimes
          the needed modules can only be obtained using Yum and sometimes using Pip.

          Also, I am using MySQL instead of SQLite and PostgresSQL
          I have not tried the advanced configurations ( WireCloud Pub Sub add-on,
          NGSI Proxy, IdM GE).
          It would also be good to integrate WireCloud with Apache server.

          All the provided link to widgets are no longer available.
          https://forge.fiware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/Application_Mashup_-_Wirecloud_-_Installation_and_Administration_Guide

          So, I am using widgets which I have tested to work with FI-Ware-Lab
          Mashup instance from the cloud.
