Installing ThoughtWorks Go Server & Agent on a Digital Ocean droplet

Installing ThoughtWorks Go Server & Agent on a Digital Ocean droplet - First announced in March 2017, the Xperia L1 has come to replace Sony’s now discontinued E series. Priced at a surprisingly cheap £169, the L1 is Sony’s newest attempt at shaking up the budget phone market. Its large screen and sleek design make us think of Sony’s higher range of smartphones: it would be hard to single it out as the cheapest model in a line of Xperias. But at such a bargain price, we can’t expect it to perform as well as its more expensive counterparts. So how does the L1 hold up to other low-budget smartphones? Here’s our Xperia L1 review. first time the View branding, well we have collected a lot of data from the field directly and from many other blogs so very complete his discussion here about Installing ThoughtWorks Go Server & Agent on a Digital Ocean droplet, on this blog we also have to provide the latest automotive information from all the brands associated with the automobile. ok please continue reading:

Today I experimented with installing ThoughtWorks Go CD Server and agent on a Digital Ocean droplet. Here are the steps (pretty simple!):

Step 1: Create a CentOS 6.7x64 droplet. Give it some name, e.g: "centos-droplet". Ensure that you choose a minimum of 1GB RAM, and enable Private Networking option while creating the droplet.

Step 2: Login as root to your new droplet.

ssh root@

Step 3: Add host entry for your droplet name. For instance, if your droplet is called "centos-droplet":

vi /etc/hosts

centos-droplet     localhost   

Step 4: Install Open JDK7 (you can also install just the JRE)

sudo yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel

Step 5: Ensure that java is installed

java -version

Step 6: Now register ThoughtWorks Go YUM repo by executing the following command:

echo "
[gocd]
name            = GoCD YUM Repository
baseurl         = http://dl.bintray.com/gocd/gocd-rpm
enabled         = 1
gpgcheck        = 0
" > /etc/yum.repos.d/thoughtworks-go.repo

Step 7: Install the Go Server

yum install -y go-server

Step 8: Check if Go Server service is running. If not, start the service. 

service go-server status 

service go-server start 

Step 9:  The server should now be running on port 8153. You should be able to open a browser on your laptop, and connect to the remote Digital Ocean droplet Go server UI on http://ip-of-your-droplet:8153/go

Step 10: Install the Go Agent (on the same droplet)

yum install -y go-agent

Step 11: Check if Go Agent service is running. If not, start the service. 

service go-agent status 

service go-agent start 

On the droplet you can run 'ps -ef | grep java' to see the server, and agent processes.

At this point, both your Go server and agent should be up and running. If you go to the "Agents" tab in your Go Server UI, you should be able to see this agent registered (with the same name as your droplet machine name).

That's it. You should be good to Go! If there are any issues, you can check server logs at /var/log/go-server and agent logs at /var/log/go-agent folder.
