NB: Test your environment variables by opening a Cygwin shell and typing 'which Tomcat6'. This should return the path to the Tomcat executable.

Step 4) Install mysql for windows.

Download the self-installing exe from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html#downloads
*The most recent 5.1.x is recommended; however, developers are also using 5.5
*Check the box that asks whether you want to include mysql bin directory in the PATH.

Step 5) In a cygwin window, do a git clone of the cloudstack-oss source code into some directory.

              -> create a cloudstack-oss directory, cd into it and fire:

              -> git clone ssh://<username>@git.cloud.com/var/lib/git/cloudstack-oss

Step

...

6) Edit the file cloudstack-oss/build/override/build-cloud.properties to include a tomcat_home variable:

              -> tomcat_home=C:\Tomcat 6.0

Step

...

7) Install "mkisofs" in windows if for any reason cygwin’s mkisofs isn’t picked up.

              -> http://svnpenn.blogspot.com/2011/06/mkisofs-for-windows_24.html

Copy over the above exe some place in C:\, and set the PATH env variable for Windows 7 to point to this directory.

Step 8

...

             -> carry out the same steps as for mkisofs. Or, when installing, just check the box that asks whether you want to include mysql bin directory in the PATH.

) If you don't have JDK installed, install it. Note where you're installing it, that would be JAVA_HOME. You will need this for later. Get JDK 1.7 from: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-7u2-download-1377129.html

I installed mine under :

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_02\
