The meepctl dockerize commands are failing in a fresh setup.

Below are the commands I tried.

I noticed these lines & they seem to be missing the file/directory specified in the LHS of the COPY.

https://github.com/InterDigitalInc/AdvantEDGE/blob/master/go-apps/meep-virt-engine/Dockerfile#L25-L26

But - if I manually copy over the directories and files from go-apps to bin (and edit / comment out the lines above) & then issue a direct docker build command like for i in ls ; do docker build -t anoop/$i -f $i/Dockerfile . ; docker push anoop/$i ; done, then I can get the images to build, but I had to comment out/edit the lines above.

I'm sure I'm missing something quite basic.

Hi @anokun7 ,

You are correct, you should be able to use a different docker registry and this does not seem to be the cause of the issue you are observing.

Your issue seems to be caused by a meep-virt-engine build failure. The folder /home/ec2-user/AdvantEDGE/bin/meep-virt-engine should be created when you build the meep-virt-engine and it should contain a copy of the Dockerfile and the meep-virt-engine binary. Please run the following command and provide the build logs to check for errors: meepctl build meep-virt-engine -v

Hi @anokun7 ,

Your meepctl configuration seems to have an error in the meep.registry. Please follow the following instructions from the runtim installation wiki page:
https://github.com/InterDigitalInc/AdvantEDGE/wiki/runtime-environment#step-7---configure-docker-registry

Here is what my config looks like:

========================================
meep.gitdir : /home/englab/dilallkx/AdvantEDGE
meep.registry : meep-docker-registry:30001
meep.workdir : /home/englab/.meep
node.ip : 10.190.114.150
========================================

The docker registry name is important and required to store the platform docker images correctly for deployment.
Please set the proper configuration and let me know if it resolves your issue.

Thank you @dilallkx

So I have tried using the default as well, which was meep-docker-registry:30001. But same issue. I wanted to share my images with my team & so I have my public docker hub name there. In any event, that should not have a bearing on building images per se, should it? I confirm that I get the same behavior using either value.

Here is a link to the AdvantEDGE build wiki page:

The build logs should give us more information about the error.

Ah. That was it. 👍

I was trying to get away from setting up a development/build environment. It seemed especially promising when I was able to download the `meepctl` binary without having to build it using a development environment. It seemed even more promising when I was able to run `meepctl deploy dep` without using docker at all. I think we can either host pre-built docker images or at least prepare a development environment within a docker container. It would be nice to have a deployment only option. It would be more friction-less that way, IMO.

Thank you @dilallkx 🙏 - I was able to run dockerize all (after installing a bunch of stuff I have no idea what they do). This is on RHEL 8 by the way, using docker, containerd & k0s.

Hi @anokun7 ,

Glad to hear this fixed your issue!
Also glad to hear that you were able to create the docker images on RHEL 8 (note that we do not test this distribution).

WRT installation from binaries (to avoid dev environment setup) this is possible for major releases and is briefly described in the wiki procedure here: https://github.com/InterDigitalInc/AdvantEDGE/wiki#getting-started

You must extract the release binaries to the AdvantEDGE folder, which should create the /bin folder with the release binaries. The meepctl dockerize command should then work correctly. You mention that you were able to get the meepctl binary, the platform binaries should have been in the same archive. Please let me know if this is not the case.

Note: For release v1.6.1 hotfix, the v1.6.0 binaries should be used. I will update the v1.6.1 release notes accordingly.

Also, I agree that a containerized dev environment would be great... it is on our improvement roadmap!
Thanks again!
