Installing OpenNebula on CentOS 6.5

I am installing OpenNebula on my CentOS 6.9 server, which I have running inside a VirtualBox Machine.

While going through the installation process, I got stuck at this point:

# cat << EOT > /etc/yum.repos.d/opennebula.repo

This command does not respond at all: it simply goes to the next line and displays this: >

I am almost ready to finalise my installation, and this obstacle is a pain.

Suggestions, anyone?

cat << EOT > /etc/yum.repos.d/opennebula.repo

This means that the shell session is waiting for more input.

<

So that's where you are. The instructions you're following probably have a text block immediately following, terminated by EOT on a new-line. Your input there will look like

cat << EOT > /etc/yum.repos.d/opennebula.repo
> this   <-- this is you typing
> that   <- or pasting stuff
> more   <- here too
> EOT    <- and finally here.

And you'll get the regular prompt back.

I make the subject that you compile OpenNebula. I know it may sound crazy, but it tends to give you better results in the future; starting in that you will not have all the OpenNebula files scattered throughout the system, but in a single directory.
