Has anyone actually cloned the repo and gotten it to run?
I tried and failed, but maybe I don’t know enough or have the wrong platform.
I’m also having issues. Docker errors out with:
“ERROR: Service ‘kadira-ui’ failed to build: The command ‘/bin/sh -c bash $METEORD_DIR/on_build.sh’ returned a non-zero code: 2”
and trying to run kadira-engine (after running npm install) with the run.sh shell script also errors out with:
Error connecting to the Mongo Metrics Cluster
Setting the environment variable MONGO_SHARD_URL_one does not help. Anyone able to get it working?
I hope that anyone in the community will provide a paid service (if the license allows it). I think it’s clear that Kadira is not an easy “run it by yourself” solution, it was not designed for that, especially if you see how much work and knowledge arunoda has invested in it.

The license definitely does and it would be great for someone to do this!
We’re not quite at the point yet of offering this as a service (if we ever do), but we have got it working internally on our (AWS) infrastructure - so it’s definitely doable, if not straightforward!

@sashko, @rohit2b : Do you have access to the Kadira knowledgebase assets?
Clicking the dashboard’s help icons takes me to support.kadira.io/knowledgebase, which I’m assuming will not be a viable option after mid-May?
And for “learn more” links which go to kadira.io/academy.
MDG has the access to the support forum. I hope they’ll continue to support it.
And it’s the same as the kadira.io/academy.
But I’ll also try to keep them online as needed after the kadira.io shutdown.

We use a different support (Zendesk) and documentation system (Hexo) for Galaxy and Meteor APM.
We thus won’t be using the support.kadira.io system - which is Uservoice. We’re migrating the content to our documentation system. The content for the Galaxy and Meteor APM docs is open source, so you can feel free to point to it or fork it: https://github.com/meteor/galaxy-docs

@rohit2b I am facing issues, while hosting kadira-apm…Can you plz help on how to configure init-shell.sh?
Working no, but I am currently working towards a something that will help users get setup quickly and easily, until then if you would like to request any advice you can do so in the https://github.com/kadira-io issues and I would be glad to help.
Regards
To clarify @rpitt’s comment: we have had Kadira working in-house for over a week now. In addition we have refactored the build process towards a completely Docker-based deployment, to make it as simple as possible to implement.
However, we do not have a repo we are happy to release, in that it’s not in a clean, ready-to-use state. I have spoken to our CTO to see if we can release anyway - warts and all, but there are a lot of gaps to plug - not least the Kadira intellectual property (including name and logo) and references to the extant Kadira sites (for docs, FAQs, etc). In addition, the tooling around the Docker containers is currently incomplete.
I’ll update on this thread if anything changes.

any news on this?
we’re planning on start experimenting on kadira for our projects
NodeChef have a hosted service which I’ve been very happy with: https://www.nodechef.com/docs/node/meteor-apm

We’ve decided not to go forward with it. Kadira’s rather like a swan - looks really good, but underneath it’s wet, smelly and paddling furiously

Alrighty, thanks for sharing!

Did you decide/build out an alternative?
We’re still using it internally - we’re just not prepared to release a repo - it would not reflect well on our standards.
