What does this error mean: “maverick is not supported.” when installing AppScale?

Question

I am trying to install AppScale on a cluster, and I'm running this command:

debian/appscale_build.sh

when I get this error:

maverick is not supported

what does this mean? I am unable to understand it.

This is my ubuntu details:

lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 10.10  
Release:    10.10
Codename:   maverick

Answer 1

Are you looking at this: https://launchpad.net/appscale? A quick google of "installing app scale on ubuntu" provides me w/ this page:http://code.google.com/p/appscale/wiki/Getting_Started_Current_Release but doesn't show a current release outside of Karmic and the last build of anything from 2011. I would assume this means there are no current packages for Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick) which is why it isn't installing and not supported.

I hope this helps out with your question.

The AppScale image only support Lucid right now. See http://code.google.com/p/appscale/wiki/ImageCreationLucid on how to create an image.
