Hello, I've made a PPA for elasticsearch (currently, 0.15.2 and 0.16.0).

Hi Rui, I tried to test it on my Ubuntu laptop but when I try to update apt, I get this warning : W: Impossible de récupérer [http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz](http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz) 404 Not Found W: Impossible de récupérer [http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz](http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz) 404 Not Found Does it make sense to you ? Why are theses packages not found (404 error). So, sudo apt-get install elasticsearch doesn't work... I use Ubuntu 10.10 on i386 laptop.

Hello David, Its expected. I've only made packages for Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 (its the only version I use). In future I expect to have Ubuntu Natty Narwhal 11.04 too... not for 10.10 though... For 10.10 you have to try to manually install the debian package; something like: sudo apt-get install jsvc curl curl -O [http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/pool/main/e/elasticsearch/elasticsearch\_0.16.0-0ubuntu1\_i386.deb](http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/pool/main/e/elasticsearch/elasticsearch_0.16.0-0ubuntu1_i386.deb) sudo dpkg -i elasticsearch\_0.16.0-0ubuntu1\_i386.deb If that does not work, I guess you can rebuild the package for 10.10. I'm not sure this is the right way, but in principle, you can do it with something like: sudo apt-get install devscripts build-essential fakeroot dh-make dget [http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/pool/main/e/elasticsearch/elasticsearch\_0.16.0-0ubuntu1.dsc](http://ppa.launchpad.net/rgl/elasticsearch/ubuntu/pool/main/e/elasticsearch/elasticsearch_0.16.0-0ubuntu1.dsc) dpkg-source -x elasticsearch\_0.16.0-0ubuntu1.dsc # ignore signature checks... cd elasticsearch-0.16.0 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot sudo dpkg -i ../elasticsearch\_0.16.0-0ubuntu1\_i386.deb I hope I didn't forget anything... HTH.

It's a pretty simple way to have elasticsearch as a service with start/stop/status commands. Thanks for this packaging. David. ---

Hi Rui, I'd like to build a similar install for elasticsearch 0.17.5. Would you be able to share you build process for this PPA? Thanks, Phil ---

Hi Guys, did Rui ever share his PPA build? I need to put 0.17 to production today (who would guess `word_delimiter` doesn't exist in \<= 0.16!) And unless someone shared their build script, I guess I need to learn how to write package build scripts for Ubuntu! Thanks, Lee ---

Hi Lee, I didn't hear anything back. This is my current build process.... wget [https://github.com/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-0.17.5.tar.gz](https://github.com/downloads/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-0.17.5.tar.gz) tar -zxvf elasticsearch-0.17.5.tar.gz mv elasticsearch-0.17.5 /opt/ sudo mv elasticsearch-0.17.5 /opt/ cd /opt/ sudo ln -s elasticsearch-0.17.5 elasticsearch cd /tmp sudo apt-get install git-core git clone git://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-servicewrapper.git cp -r elasticsearch-servicewrapper/service /opt/elasticsearch/bin/ sudo /opt/elasticsearch/bin/service/elasticsearch install sudo service elasticsearch start tail -F /opt/elasticsearch/wrapper.log Cheers, Phil Blog : [http://www.philwhln.com](http://www.philwhln.com) ---
