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.

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
