Thanks, now "./engine-service start" succeeded.
[root@bufferoverflow bin]# ./engine-service start
Starting engine-service:                                    [  OK  ]

However, when I try to access "http://localhost:8700" I get an empty page (0 bytes).

I see the following errors in 
/home/wil/ovirt-engine/installation/var/log/ovirt-engine/server.log

checked out to 3.2 branch, now the configuration file was as detailed in

after configuring it I try to start the engine and get:

[wil@bufferoverflow bin]$ pwd

Traceback (most recent call last):

Ok, this is because the service script needs the python-configobj and python-cheetah packages:

  yum install python-configobj python-cheetah

            Everything is good up to the following stage:

            The "sysconfig" directory does not exist. so does the

            configuration file (searched through the $HOME/ovirt-engine
            tree).
            I didn't find any code in the Makefile

            them,
            What am I missing?


        This has changed recently and I didn't update that wiki page. The
        /etc/sysconig/ovirt-engine file has been replaced by
        /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.


    But wait, this change was made in the master branch, not in 3.2, so
    it shouldn't be a problem. Are you sure you are using the engine_3.2
    branch?

                          Hi,
                          I'm installing Ovirt 3.1 on Fedora using this
            guide:
            http://www.ovirt.org/Building_ oVirt_engine#Deploying_engine-
                          config_.26_engine-manage- domains

                          and I'm getting the error in the subject from
            make.
                          there is indeed no rule for install_tools in
            the makefile.

                          What am I missing?

                          Those instructions are out of date, use "make
            install". That
                          installs
                          the files, but you will still need some
            changes to make the
                          engine
                          work:

                          1. Create the ovirt user (the engine runs by
            default with this
                          service, unless you change the
            /etc/syscofig/ovirt-engine
                          file and
                          add the ENGINE_USER and ENGINE_GROUP parameters):

                          useradd ovirt

                          2. Create (mkdir -p ...) and change the
            ownership of the
                          directories
                          that the engine needs to own to ovirt:ovirt (chown
                          ovirt:ovirt ...):

                          /etc/ovirt-engine
                          /var/log/ovirt-engine
                          /var/lock/ovirt-engine
                          /var/lib/ovirt-engine/content
                          /var/lib/ovirt-engine/ deployments
                          /var/tmp/ovirt-engine
                          /var/cache/ovirt-engine

                          3. Enable the HTTP connector in the engine
            (the default is
                          to enable
                          only AJP, and that doesn't work without Apache
            as frontend)
                          adding
                          the following to the
            /etc/sysconfig/ovirt-engine file:

                          ENGINE_PROXY_ENABLED=false
                          ENGINE_HTTP_ENABLED=true
                          ENGINE_HTTP_PORT=8700
                          ENGINE_HTTPS_ENABLED=false
                          ENGINE_AJP_ENABLED=false

                          4. Configure database connection details (the
            default in
                          development
                          environments is to use the postgres user and
            the trust mode)
                          adding
                          this to /etc/sysconfig/ovirt-engine:

                          ENGINE_DB_USER=postgres
                          ENGINE_DB_PASSWORD=

                          5. Make sure that you have the PostgreSQL JDBC
            driver
                          installed (rpm
                          -q postgresql-jdbc) and install it if needed
            (yum install
                          postgresql-jdbc).

                          6. Now you can start the engine running the
            engine-service
                          script:

                          engine-service start

                          Look at the system log (the file
            /var/log/messages) and the
                          engine
                          logs (the files /var/log/ovirt-engine/server.
            log and
                          /var/log/ovirt-engine) for errors.

                          7. Connect to http://localhost:8700 and you
            should be able
                          to login
                          with user admin and letmein! as password.

                          Note that I am assuming that you already
            created the
                          database, and
                          that you want to use this installation for
            development. If
                          you are
                          looking for an production installation I
            suggest using the RPMs.

                          Also I tested this with the latest source from the
                          repository, it
                          will not work with older versions.
