Deploy API REST IBM Hyperledger Composer Blockchain (bad flag in substitute command: 'U' ERROR) - ibm-cloud

I'm getting this error trying to deploy a card to a working blockchain on cloud, any idea? Thanks in advance. I'm using a mac, following the guide (Kubernetes installed/configured well, I think):
https://ibm-blockchain.github.io/interacting/
./create/create_composer-rest-server.sh --paid --business-network-card /Users/sm/jsblock/tutorial-network/PeerAdmin#fabric-network.card
Configured to setup a paid storage on ibm-cs
Preparing yaml file for create composer-rest-server
sed: 1: "s/%COMPOSER_CARD%//User ...": bad flag in substitute command: 'U'
Creating composer-rest-server pod
Running: kubectl create -f /Users/sm/jsblock/ibm-container-service/cs-offerings/scripts/../kube-configs/composer-rest-server.yaml
error: no objects passed to create
Composer rest server created successfully

There is an error in that document. And you are also specifying the Peer Admin card when you need to use a Network Admin Card.
There are 2 sets of 'parallel' documents for paid and free clusters. The command you are using has --paid in it in error. If you remove --paid and use the Network Admin Card I think it will solve the problem.
Your command will look something like this: ./create/create_composer-rest-server.sh --business-network-card admin#YOUR-network

I tried again with the install proccess (deployed blockchain instance seemed to work weall): https://ibm-blockchain.github.io/simple/
But I noticed that the script:
./create_all.sh
...never ended (mostly an internal kubernetes problems I guess). And I reset the installation:
./delete_all.sh
./create_all.sh
I tried again, now everything Ok. I could get my awesome API REST talking with my Hyperledger Blockchain, deployed on IBM Cloud. Ready to develop something amazing.

Unable to login to screwdriver.cd via github

Every time I try logging in to https://cd.screwdriver.cd/login I am getting {"statusCode":403,"error":"Forbidden","message":"User github:tannupriyasingh is not allowed access"} error.
I tried adding webhook to Github with steps mentioned here https://developer.github.com/webhooks/creating/ and running into Tunnel 541e163b.ngrok.io not found response
I am expecting to login and create a deployment pipeline in screwdriver-cd.
https://cd.screwdriver.cd is our demo Screwdriver cluster used for deploying open source Screwdriver. We currently do not host any instances for public use. You can login with Guest Access to look at the UI in cd.screwdriver.cd, but you'll need to run your own instance of Screwdriver in order to create a deployment pipeline.
A couple options for running your own instance:

Issue connecting composer to Blockchain on Bluemix - identity or token does not match

I have fabric composer 0.72 installed on my mac, and I was able to follow this thread to get it connected to my Blockchain (v.61 of Fabric) on Bluemix.
fabric-composer-integration-with-bluemix-blockchain-service
Now I am trying to build an ubuntu (16.04) docker container and run composer-rest-server there. When I try to connect to my blockchain service from my docker container (using the same id, WebAppAdmin, that I used on my mac) I get an error:
Discovering types from business network definition ...
Connection fails: Error: Identity or token does not match.
It will be retried for the next request.
{ Error: Identity or token does not match.
at /home/composer/.nvm/versions/node/v6.10.3/lib/node_modules /composer-rest-server/node_modules/grpc/src/node/src/client.js:417:17 code: 2, metadata: Metadata { _internal_repr: {} } }
I tried copying the cert from my mac to my docker container:
/home/composer/.composer-credentials/member.WebAppAdmin
but when I did that I got a different error that says "signature does not verify". I did some additional testing, and I discovered that if I used an id that I had not previously used with composer (i.e. user_type1_0) then I could connect, and I could see a new cert in my .composer-credentials directory.
I tried deleting that container and building a new one (I dorked something else up) I could not use that same userid again.
Does anybody know how security and these certs are supposed to work? It would seem as though something to do with certificate generation/validation is tied to the client (i.e. hardware address), such that if I try to re-use an id on a different machine, the certs or keys or something don't match. I have a way to make things work, but it doesn't seem like it's the right way if I can't use the same id from different machines.
Thanks!
Hi i tried to recreate this by having blockchain running on a unix machine and then i copied my connection profile and certificate to my mac and then edited my connection profile to update the ip address and key store. I then did a composer network ping and it worked fine.
I am using composer v0.7.4 so you could try that?
I have also faced this issue, and concluded that
There is inconsistent behavior while deploying network using composer on Cloud environment includeing Bluemix. Problem is not with composer, but with fabric 0.6.
I am assuming that this issue is also indirectly related to following known bugs into fabric 0.6, which will not be fixed in fabric 0.6.

So far, We have understood that following three JIRA are root cause , where essentially the cloud networking layer ends up killing the idle event hub connection after a period of inactivity and the fabric SDK cannot handle this.
https://jira.hyperledger.org/browse/FAB-4002 FAB-3310
https://jira.hyperledger.org/browse/FAB-3310
or FAB-2787
Conclusion:
There is no alternative way of fixing this issue with Bluemix or any cloud environment with fabric 0.6
You may not experience this issue with Fabric 1.0, but there is still possibilities as all above mentioned defects are not fixed yet.

Google Vision API - tatusCode.RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED

I am new to the Google Vision API and I would like to conduct a label detection of approx. 10 images and I would like to run the vision quickstart.py file. However when I do this with only 3 images then it is successful. With more than 3 images I am getting the error message below. I know that I would need to change something at my setup, but I do not know what I should change.
Here is my error message:
google.gax.errors.RetryError: GaxError(Exception occurred in retry method
that was not classified as transient, caused by <_Rendezvous of RPC that
terminated with (StatusCode.RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED, Insufficient tokens for
quota 'DefaultGroup' and limit 'USER-100s' of service
'vision.googleapis.com' for consumer 'project_number: XXX'.)>)
Does anybody know what I need to do?
Any help would be much appreciated
Cheers,
Andi
I ran into the same problem and fixed it with these steps:
Make sure you have the Google Cloud SDK properly installed: https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/reference/libraries
Setup a Service Account in the Google Cloud backend: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2ServiceAccount#creatinganaccount
Create a Service Account Key and download it as a JSON file to a local folder. You need to keep the key private.
Export the filepath to the key-file as an environment variable: gcloud auth activate-service-account --key-file path/to/your/keyfile/here
Log out/in of the console.
Make sure, the environment variable is properly set with printenv
Try your py-script again...
Good luck...
Edit: In addition to the mentioned steps 1.-3. you can just do vision_client = vision.Client.from_service_account_json('/path/to/your/keyfile.json') in your script. No need for the env variable then.

installing kubernetes on coreos with rkt and automated script

I'm trying to install kuberentes with rkt on my real (not virtual) coreos servers at home using the scripts at https://github.com/coreos/coreos-kubernetes/tree/master/multi-node/generic and I have some questions.
my etcd2 is using tls keys, I can't see anywhere in the script where I can define where the certificates are located.
can I supply a domain instead of IP for ADVERTISE_IP and CONTROLLER_ENDPOINT ?
when I tried to install kubernetes manually I needed start the rkt service api. it doesn't state in the documents that it needed here, does it mean that I don't need it if I use these scripts? or is it just something that's missing in the documents?
thanks!
update
Rob thank you so much for your response. I wasn't clear enough regarding etcd2. I already have etcd2 tls installed and properly configured on my coreos servers. so I configured my etcd servers in the controller-install.sh file:
export ETCD_ENDPOINTS="https://coreos-2.tux-in.com:2379,https://coreos-3.tux-in.com:2379"
but when I run the controller-install.sh script, it returns and repeat the following output:
Waiting for etcd...
Trying: https://coreos-2.tux-in.com:2379
Trying: https://coreos-3.tux-in.com:2379
Trying: https://coreos-2.tux-in.com:2379
Trying: https://coreos-3.tux-in.com:2379
...
so I was guessing it's because i didn't define etcd related tls certificates in the controller script and that is why it stuck in that faze.
on my macbook pro laptop I have the following alias configured:
alias myetcdctl="~/apps/etcd-v3.0.8-darwin-amd64/etcdctl --endpoint=https://coreos-2.tux-in.com:2379 --ca-file=/Users/ufk/Projects/coreos/tux-in/etcd/certs/certs-names/ca.pem --cert-file=/Users/ufk/Projects/coreos/tux-in/etcd/certs/certs-names/etcd1.pem --key-file=/Users/ufk/Projects/coreos/tux-in/etcd/certs/certs-names/etcd1-key.pem --timeout=10s"
so when I run myetcdctl member list I get:
8832ce6a269a7dac: name=ccff826d5f564c67abf35467306f80a0 peerURLs=https://coreos-3.tux-in.com:2380 clientURLs=https://coreos-3.tux-in.com:2379 isLeader=true
a2c0ac9708ef90fc: name=dc38bc8f20e64940b260d3f7b260430d peerURLs=https://coreos-2.tux-in.com:2380 clientURLs=https://coreos-2.tux-in.com:2379 isLeader=false
so I'm guessing that I don't really have a problem there.
any ideas?
thanks!
my etcd2 is using tls keys, I can't see anywhere in the script where I can define where the certificates are located.
These scripts don't start an etcd server. You will need to set one up manually and will be able to use TLS and as many nodes as you would like. This isn't clear in the current form of the document, I will attempt a PR to fix.
can I supply a domain instead of IP for ADVERTISE_IP and CONTROLLER_ENDPOINT ?
Only CONTROLLER_ENDPOINT be a domain name.
when I tried to install kubernetes manually I needed start the rkt service api. it doesn't state in the documents that it needed here, does it mean that I don't need it if I use these scripts? or is it just something that's missing in the documents?
These scripts include/start the rkt API service. As you can see below, it also has a Restart parameter set (source):
[Unit]
Before=kubelet.service
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/rkt api-service
Restart=always
RestartSec=10
[Install]
RequiredBy=kubelet.service

Deploy managed services into CloudFoundry

I installed Cloud Foundry v2 Nise Installer (with cf-release ea61ec6f8f, VirtualBox)
and successfully pushed 'hello' application with 2 built-in services(mysql and postgresql).
1) How can I add more managed services, e.g. 'echo', 'mongodb' (existing under cf-release/src/services)?
2) I also installed cf_nise_services on the different VM (VirtualBox) but I do not understand how to connect both VMs to deploy services.
I tried to add my service via (on VM1)
create-service-plan/create-plan/create-service-auth-token
I got an error after (at the very end)
cf create-service
CFoundry::MessageParseError: 1001: Request invalid due to parse error: Decoded JSON cannot be nil
Or
HTTP 404
My service does not respond correctly?
Thank you!
The branch ea61ec6f8f is too old and not maintained any longer.
cf_nise_installer_services is, unfortunately, not maintained now. I'll delete it from the README later.
Please try cf-mysql-broker.
