Still having trouble with the build process (Ovirt 3.1):

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Those instructions are out of date, use "make install".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.
