Tried couple of times, got into same issue. Not sure if something wrong with my install steps or common issue with 'manageworkspace-masdemo-maslocal.yaml' file?

I am trying to install MAS8.X on Windows 2019 Server using Sql server.
Stuck at below error.

Error from server (NotFound): error when creating "mssql/manageworkspace-masdemo-maslocal.yaml": namespaces "mas-masdemo-manage" not found
C:\MAS8\mas-local>

Error from server (NotFound): error when creating "mssql/manageworkspace-masdemo-maslocal.yaml": namespaces "mas-masdemo-manage" not found

C:\MAS8\mas-local>

Hi,

Thanks for the script.

Working perfectly!

Hi,

I have executed the script on my local machine and it’s working great.

question - is there any option where we can use the custom domain for Mas application in this setup?

There is one variable called “MAS_DOMAIN” which is being used by the the Ansible script.

Can we use this variable and make our own custom URL’s for Mas setup on local environment?

I am asking the question because we are looking for some local environment where we can connect from the Mobile Emulator where public CA is required. In case if custom domain is available in the local OCP then we can setup public CA in one of front end web server like (NGINX, Apach)

Please let us know how the variable MAS_DOMAIN works in the Ansible script

From my side, I am planing to make one environment to setup and check. But if you already have idea of limitation then please let us know.

I will provide my input after my change and test result.

Thanks.

When using "masinst.bat mssql" command to install MAS in P15, I got the error: the path "manageworkspace-masdemo-maslocal.yaml" does not exist, as below:

I checked the bat file. It seems no "manageworkspace-masdemo-maslocal.yaml" file in the folder.

Hi,
trying to use the script on both Linux and Windows OS, but in both cases installation does not go past 'create MongoDB cluster'.
I've managed to pinpoint the problem to the creating of PVC which throws error in log:
mkdir: can't create directory '/data/pvc-954d7733-57a1-47b9-ba9e-dc337106b055': Permission denied
Do You have any hints on that ?

Problem:
Sometime, when testing in a new CRC env in windows OS. When running masinst.bat, I got "error: You must be logged in to the server (Unauthorized)" as below:

Solution:
Before running masinst.bat, please make sure you have login the cluster as below:
oc.exe login -u kubeadmin -p (your password) https://api.crc.testing:6443
