Resin Cloud deployment with Amazon WS EC2 and Euca Tools
From Resin 3.0
Running Euca Tools to launch Amazon EC2 instances.
This is an extention of this tutorial [Resin Cloud Deployment with Amazon EC2].

Setup Euca Tools on Ubuntu local box
Install tools:
$ sudo apt-get install -y euca2ools
Create ~/.eucarc file
In home dir create .eucarc file with the following contents. To get the EC2_ACCESS_KEY and the EC2_SECRET_KEY go to the Amazon WS home then go to the Account Tab then go to Security Credentials. You should access key and the secret key. Click around. It is there.
rick@ubuntu:~$ cat .eucarc EC2_PRIVATE_KEY=/home/rick/.ec2/pk-6HWBZZZZZZZZZZZPKCWWPTR.pem EC2_CERT=/home/rick/.ec2/cert-6HWBPKCWWPTRZZZZZZZZ3AL6.pem EC2_ACCESS_KEY=AKIAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ EC2_URL=http://ec2.amazonaws.com EC2_SECRET_KEY=OTbf8mwYC6PFphdAjdCZZZZZZZZZ
Create a new Amazon Linux instance
We are going to create an Amazon Linux instance, which we can describe as follows:
$ euca-describe-images | grep "ami-1b814f72" IMAGE ami-1b814f72 amazon/amzn-ami-2011.09.2.x86_64-ebs 137112412989 available public x86_64 machine aki-825ea7eb ebs
Now we need to import the resin2 key. Your key pair might be named different as you set this up with Amazon as part of the initial trail setup (documented in the first tutorial linked to the Amazon documentation).
$ euca-add-keypair resin2 > priv.ec2.key $ chmod 600 priv.ec2.key
Create properties file as follows user-data.properties in the home directory.
log_level : info
dev_mode : true
resin_doc : true
app_tier : 127.0.0.1
web_tier :
cache_tier :
setuid_user : resin
setuid_group : resin
http : 8080
https : 8443
admin_user : admin
admin_enable : true
admin_password : {SSHA}BGBKQdCr0a5orH99eqIFwR/fffffffff
admin_external : true
admin_remote_enable : true
session_store : true
Now startup a new instance with the above user properties.
$ euca-run-instances ami-1b814f72 -t t1.micro -k resin2 --user-data-file user-data.properties RESERVATION r-c3c326a2 972637075895 default INSTANCE i-577b5834 ami-1b814f72 pending resin2 0 t1.micro 2011-11-30T00:53:06.000Z us-east-1a aki-825ea7eb
The instance id is i-577b5834.
$ euca-create-tags i-577b5834 --tag Name=resinserver TAG i-577b5834 Name resinserver
To get the instance you just ran do the following:
$ euca-describe-instances --filter "instance-state-name=running" --filter "image-id=ami-1b814f72" | grep INSTANCE | awk '{print $2, $4, $10}'
i-577b5834 ec2-107-22-145-5.compute-1.amazonaws.com 2011-11-29T23:28:18.000Z
The first column is the instance identifier. The second column is the public IP address. The third column is the timestamp the instance started.
The instance id is i-577b5834. You can use the instance id to get a copy of the public DNS for this instance.
$ euca-describe-instances i-577b5834 | grep INSTANCE | awk '{print $4}'
ec2-107-22-97-101.compute-1.amazonaws.com
Install Resin on the Amazon AMI instance we just Started
Once you know the URL you can log into the box with ssh.
$ ssh -i resin2.pem ec2-user@ec2-107-22-97-101.compute-1.amazonaws.com
Installed Resin on Remote Amazon box.
$ sudo rpm --import http://caucho.com/download/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-caucho $ sudo yum install http://caucho.com/download/rpm/4.0.24/x86_64/resin-pro-4.0.24-1.x86_64.rpm
Create Create an amazon.xml on the Amazon AMI instance.
Add the below to /etc/resin/local.d/amazon.xml
<resin xmlns="http://caucho.com/ns/resin"
xmlns:resin="urn:java:com.caucho.resin">
<resin:properties path="http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data"
optional="true"/>
</resin>
Deploy the Roo example from the example dir
On Local Ubuntu box
$ resinctl deploy target/blog-0.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.war -name blog -address 107.22.97.101 -port 8080 -user admin -password roofoo Deployed production/webapp/default/blog from target/blog-0.1.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.war to admin@aaa.app_tier.admin.resin/133f37dc81f
Now your app should be ready to go.
