Is it possible to integrate some domain registration service into aegir?
I found this module which may help. http://drupal.org/project/registrar_api

Usecase:

1)Client comes to the site, searches for domain name, If available adds the domain name to cart via ubercart module
2)Client will browse for hosting packages, selects one and adds to cart
3)proceeds to checkout
4)drupal site will be created at chosen domain name and email will be sent with access details

Are tools available to add modules to a platform by the (aegir) userinterface?

su -s /bin/sh aegir -c "~/drush/drush dl @platform_xxx cck views nl blablabla" is not very state of the art.

Best would be a provisioning task. I'm sure that I'm not the first having this wish.

Hello everyone:

I just finished installing Barracuda. (thanks mclendening, that side note turned out to be a gold nugget - very helpful) Beautiful, scary for an old school LAMP guy like me, but one cannot help be in utter awe of the work Barracuda Team and omega8.cc (Grace) have done and are doing. Bravo!. Makes me feel like I am in kindergarden.

Now I am on a quest to find as much info as I can on how can Barracuda be used to manage remote servers -or even if it is possible at all. I have read a few of omega8.cc's posts on the matter, but it can't seem to find much about this.

Hi,

I updated the codebase of a platform to enable an alternative language (drush @platform_xxx dl nl)
But the language does not appear in the aegir (admin) user interface at "add a site".

I tried to run provision-verify, but that did not solve the problem.
How can I make it recognize the new installation profile?

hi,everybody, I had create many CentOS to install aegir , but the result is very bad for me . First many different errors happened, and then I follow the instruction one by one , and now I can run the shell script , but it stoped in last step when shows "Admin User Email:", I use the VirtualBox to run the CentOs. please help me , any help will be appreciate.

[root@localhost aegir]# vim install.sh.txt (I added mysql password in it. like "mysql -uroot -ppassword")
[root@localhost aegir]# su -s /bin/sh aegir -c "sh install.sh.txt ae9.mydomain.net"

When I try to verify the imported sites I get the following error message:

....

The external command could not be executed due to an application error.

I have used option B in this guide when I imported the sites:

Hello everyone:

Edit on Solved status: IGNORE THIS ENTRY ABOUT SSH - SCROLL DOWN FOR THE MYSQL PART.

First of all, my most humble apologies for this post. I usually avoid bugging project developers with apparent noob questions, but after three days and no progress I felt I really had no choice.

I have been trying to set up Aegir (alpha14) with remote server with two separate nodes at Linode running Ubuntu 10.4 LTS, using one node as the Master (main Aegir) and a second node as the remote server.

Hello, can you please help :).
I added 2 platforms in Aegir system, but they stacked in task list. following error saved in database log:
Attempt to modify property of non-object in /var/aegir/drupal-6.19/profiles/hostmaster/modules/hosting/platform/hosting_platform.drush.inc on line 13.

there is a lot to duscuss... So I explained everything here...
basically, I am doing an ubuntu 10.04 install on a vps using the
http://github.com/omega8cc/nginx-for-drupal
but I am having trouble with the barracuda install.

Hi folks I think I need some help here.
Aegir 0.4alpha14 and drupal 6.19 running on ubuntu server 10.04 with PHP 5.3.
I had some sites there for more than a year and migrated them step by step way back from aegir 0.3.
Today I tried to create a new site and I got tons of:

Worst thing is aegir is stuck: is it keeps trying to install the new site (the ajax wheel in the tasks block keeps turning).
I know it's a PHP 5.3 problem, but I really don't know where to look at now to stop the site installation...
