Manual install of Deis on CoreOS

Question

I have installed CoreOS via the VMWare image file. Does anyone know how to install Deis.io? I have read through the documentation and most of it is how to install Deis on other systems.

Answer 1

You can move forward setting up Deis by exporting FLEETCTL_TUNNEL and issuing a make run like the documentation suggests, but you'll be missing some of the provisioning steps that Deis performs as part of the cloud-init script. You'll likely run into trouble.

The recommended path is to install Vagrant and issue a vagrant up in the project root to use the Deis project Vagrantfile. This sets up networking and executes the project cloud-init script.

Vagrant should detect that you have VMWare installed and not VirtualBox, and will provision appropriately.
