[Fiware-lab-help] Instances stuck in testbed, problems with instances

Dear all,

we have been trying to set up and use GEs at the FI-WARE infrastructure, 
both the testbed and the lab, but with a very mixed success.

At the testbed I (at the project name matej-artac) tried to set up some 
instances from images and blueprints. I set up two blueprints 
effectively with the same stack - just one Orion Cloud Broker tier. At 
this moment, one of the two has the status DEPLOYING for several days, 
while the other one is in status ERROR with the explanation 
"Infrastructure error region not found".

Another problem is that I cannot seem to change the states of the 
instances in any way. I have two instances in task deleting, while 
another one is in scheduling.



Could you please advise on how to set up any GEs from the market on the 
testbed to be able to use them? We are currently looking at a 
combination of Access Control GE, Keyrock, Wirecloud and Orion Context 
Broker. Using blueprints seemed to only work up to a point, because 
installation does not complete on the instance. I tried both ubuntu13.10 
(which I don't think is supported any more by canonical - should there 
be a 12.04 or a 14.04 also available?) and the CentOS image, but with no 
success. Are the issues related to the software on the marketplace that 
isn't tested enough?

We've had less problems using the cloud.lab, even though there are 
difficulties there as well. The success of instantiating a GE from an 
image is not always certain, and some of the requests from the Nova 
(such as deploying a new instance, requesting a status of an instance by 
clicking an (i) never finishes, leaving me with a spinning orb blank out 
until refreshing the page. In some task when a Nova wizard makes AJAX 
requests that the server never respods to, this makes it impossible to 
finish a task and requires a refresh of the whole page. On the 
screenshot below, the grey GET bullets in the Network view are waiting 
for a response indefinately.



Are there any pointers and instructions that would help us have more 
success with deploying and using the testbed and the cloud lab?

Thank you and best regards,
Matej
