Get Vagrant working on Payara and with updated installer #6849

Description

@pdurbin

Vagrant appears in our docs in a number of places (screenshot below) and has a prominent place in the "Choose Your Own Installation Adventure" section of the Installation Guide:

I took a swing at getting our Vagrant code working with Payara and the changes to the installer scripts but it turns out to be enough effort that a dedicated issue is warranted.

Here's what I learned or was reminded of:

  • The Vagrant code uses the old Perl installer.
  • The default.config file format has changed.

My plan is to commit what I have which at least gets rid of references to Glassfish 4.1. Moving forward, I would suggest the following:

  • Switching to the Python installer.
  • Using the default.config file provided rather than creating it on the fly.

Here are the many mentions of Vagrant:

    In a7c986d which is part of pull request #6816 I de-emphasized Vagrant as a way to try out Dataverse. That commit also contains the progress I made. I still recommend what I wrote above:

    • Switching to the Python installer.
    • Using the default.config file provided rather than creating it on the fly.
