Virtual Machine for NGS RC1 available for download

I’ve just finished uploading the Virtual Machine for MusicBrainz Next Generation Schema Release Candidate 1. This virtual machine is setup as a slave and can pull replication data from the test server by running the admin/replication/LoadReplicationChanges from the musicbrainz-server codebase about 10 minutes after every hour.

This is an easy way to jump in and take a look at how NGS and replication in NGS will work! (hint: the replication doesn’t change much)

UPDATE: See our wiki page for details on how to use this VM

  1. I tried MusicBrainz_NGS_vm_20110119.ova

    I fail immediately with:
    ./script/musicbrainz_server.pl -r
    Couldn’t load class (MusicBrainz::Server) because: Can’t locate CGI/Expand.pm in @INC (…) at …/musicbrainz-server/script/../lib/MusicBrainz/Server/Wizard/ReleaseEditor/Add.pm line 5.

  2. bgspence:

    Try this:

    $ sudo su –
    (the password is “musicbrainz”)
    # cpan
    cpan> install CGI::Expand
    cpan> quit
    # exit

  3. Thanks, that worked.

    I can search and get local results (after checking the ‘Direct Search’ checkbox)
