Cassandra backed Page Views

arcmalik5358 2019-10-09 17:13:45 UTC #1

Type: Suggestion
Description:
We are using Bitnami canvas LMS version 2018.10.06.17-1. We are trying to enable course analytics tab .Analytics package is independent from Canvas LMS and Analytics' usage of Cassandra falls into the same keyspace as Cassandra backed Page Views for that we must have Canvas LMS installed with Cassandra backed Page Views enabled . I am new to work with canvas and just joined the team . How I can check if Cassandra backed Page Views enabled or not . Or is there any documentation on bitnami for Course Analytics.

Hi miguelaeh,

Thanks for the reply . I followed all the directions in https://community.bitnami.com/t/view-course-analytics-in-bitnami-installer/59372 but now stuck with bundle update . It is giving me error " Your bundle only supports platforms [] but your local platforms are ["ruby", "x86_64-linux"], and there's no compatible match between those two lists" and I am not sure how to resolve this in Bitnami canvas .

miguelaeh 2019-10-22 13:53:50 UTC #4

Hi @arcmalik5358,
Could you please give a try to the following commands?

$ bundle lock --add-platform ruby
$ bundle lock --add-platform x86_64-linux

Hello miguelaeh,

Thanks for reply . I have installed Cassandra on the same server where my Bitnami Canvas Lms is installed (It is running on AWS instance Ubantu 16.04) . Do I have to installed Cassandra on different server because in the https://community.bitnami.com/t/view-course-analytics-in-bitnami-installer/59372 It says "First, you should install Cassandra and configure CanvasLMS to use it" ."You can install Cassandra from here: https://bitnami.com/stack/cassandra11
Configure Cassandra as per: https://github.com/instructure/canvas-lms/blob/stable/config/cassandra.yml.example8".

Hi @arcmalik5358,
How did you install Cassandra? The bitnami installer for Cassandra where removed some time ago, now we only support .ova file, cloud images and containers.
If you want to install the bitnami Cassandra solution with Canvas you will probably need to do it using docker, launching other cloud image or using the .ova file.

arcmalik5358 2019-10-23 15:02:40 UTC #7

I have did not install Cassandra from Bitnami installer I tried to install by following the doc above I found it was giving me the option to install on different server only so I install one for Ubantu 16.04.

miguelaeh 2019-10-24 10:09:06 UTC #8

Hi @arcmalik5358,
I am not sure about what is the state of your installation now. Is it working? Did you get it running correctly? If not, could you describe the error?

arcmalik5358 2019-10-25 13:52:30 UTC #9

Hi miguelaeh,

Thanks for the reply,Yes It is working fine, I have installed Cassandra 3.11.4 for Ubantu and JDK 1.8.0 . Now I need to configure CanvasLMS according to the Cassandra credentials. I am not able to find config/cassandra.yml file in Bitnami Canvas, and where and how we can configure Canvas LMS to listen Cassandra or connect with Cassandra to enable course analytics tab.

Hi ,

To CanvasLMS according to the Cassandra credentials I have created a cassandra.yml file in" /opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/conf#" and configured as mentioned in "https://github.com/instructure/canvas-lms/blob/stable/config/cassandra.yml.example" by creating a production block similar to the existing test and development block. Hope I have done right. After this config I followed the https://community.bitnami.com/t/view-course-analytics-in-bitnami-installer/593722 to prepare the environment by ensuring Git is installed, loading the CanvasLMS environment and updating then Install the CanvasLMS Analytics package but I have stuck pon Bundle update and when I checked status of a service with the service bitnami status command found Cavas _init is not working . I have no idea why it'snot working .Can someone please help me in this .

miguelaeh 2019-10-28 10:12:57 UTC #12

Hi @arcmalik5358,
It will be useful if you provided the logs of you installation. Also, we have a Support Tool that will gather relevant information for us to analyze your configuration and logs. Could you please download and execute it on the machine where the stack is running by following the steps described in the guide below?

How to Run the Bitnami Support Tool

Please note that you need to paste the code ID that is shown at the end.

Also, I cannot access the link you provided, please verify it is correct.

arcmalik5358 2019-10-28 16:49:54 UTC #13

I have installed the Canvas LMS with the help of Bitnami installer now I am trying to implement Canvas Analytics by following https://community.bitnami.com/t/view-course-analytics-in-bitnami-installer/59372 . I have running these commands below

"cd /opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/htdocs
git clone https://github.com/instructure/analytics gems/plugins/analytics
# move the gemfile lock file for the bundle update command to work
mv Gemfile.lock Gemfile.lock.old"

when I try to run bundle update it gave me error then I ran
**$ bundle lock --add-platform ruby
$ bundle lock --add-platform x86_64-linux**
and end up with some error and canvas_init stopped running and hot this error below

/opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/scripts/ctl.sh : canvas_init could not be started

I tried to run Support Tool and got this code what I got after running the support tool "c7fc9900-6b66-40eb-74b5-445d53125711" .

Also, I can see in the github the instructions are

cd [canvas-rails-root]
git clone [analytics-repo-url] gems/plugins/analytics
bundle update
rake db:migrate
rake canvas:compile_assets

Did you complete all the steps?

arcmalik5358 2019-10-29 15:05:29 UTC #15

Yes I did complete all the steps by following https://community.bitnami.com/t/view-course-analytics-in-bitnami-installer as below
cd /opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/htdocs
git clone https://github.com/instructure/analytics gems/plugins/analytics

move the gemfile lock file for the bundle update command to work

mv Gemfile.lock Gemfile.lock.old
bundle update
and after bundle update I got an error . But looks like git clone https://github.com/instructure/analytics gems/plugins/analyticsis not right it is giving error " not a git repository (or any of the parent directories"

miguelaeh 2019-10-30 10:41:38 UTC #16

hi @arcmalik5358,
Could you try to do

mkdir -p gems/plugins

before try to clone the repository?
Now clone the repository.
After that, before continue with the rest of steps, check if the analytics directory has been created in gems/plugins/.

Remeber that all the steps should be done from /opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/htdocs so your first command should be:

cd /opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/htdocs

arcmalik5358 2019-11-04 19:26:38 UTC #17

Hello miguelaeh,

Thanks for the reply I have installed Install OpenJDK JRE 8 which is required for Cassandra then I have installed Cassandra which was required to enable view course analytics plugins on Canvas LMS (using Bitnami stack) . Then I have configured Cassandra as per > https://github.com/instructure/canvas-lms/blob/stable/config/cassandra.yml.example . After that created a directory by running these commands :
cd /opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/htdocs
mkdir -p gems/plugins

and followed all the instruction as given in https://community.bitnami.com/t/view-course-analytics-in-bitnami-installer

sudo apt-get install -y git
sudo /opt/bitnami/use_canvaslms
"#Update yarn
sudo npm install -g yarn@1.6.0
Install the CanvasLMS Analytics package:
d /opt/bitnami/apps/canvaslms/htdocs
git clone https://github.com/instructure/analytics gems/plugins/analytics"
After running git clone command canvas_init has been stopped. Can you please suggest what can be the problem and how to resolve this I also have run support tool and got this code "f47be6b3-df60-7c86-7ca5-136e382db3ed" .
.

Hi @arcmalik5358,
Can you change the permissions of the /opt/bitnami directory?

chown -R bitnami /opt/bitnami

Also, can you check if this directory exists:
