I'm having some trouble on set-up and was disappointed to find a placeholder under the tutorials section. Would be really helpful to have a quick walkthrough on making some basic requests.

Sorry we haven't gotten around to this yet. For now, looking through the test/integ test cases should be a good start for seeing how the http api works.

I see that his is a very old thread... However, I totally agree with @ahalota that some server set-up tutorial (even a very brief one) would be EXTREMELY useful.

I have been trying to set-up my first h5server for last few days and at this point I am getting hopeless. Using both docker and manual installation, I cannot get data from the server even though the server is running and I am able to get some responses.

I wonder if it is an issue of the server installation itself, if it is an issue of h5pyd (which I use to execute requests), or if it has something to do with server set-up (e.g. authentication).

As I said, even a minimal tutorial would be very helpful and appreciated.

I completely agree, I'm at a loss of where to start to debug even the test suite...

@seb5g have a look at Issue #128 it might be helpful.

Hopefully the install docs for HSDS are an improvement. Now that HSDS supports posix storage, I'd recommend using HSDS over h5serv. Here's the doc for the HSDS Posix install: https://github.com/HDFGroup/hsds/blob/master/docs/docker_install.md.

@jreadey does that mean that I can replace h5serv by HSDS and host the file server locally? (instead of cloud hosting like AWS)

@jreadey , I just installed the HSDS posix docker image and I'm up and running until the integration tests. They fail... It seems there's an issue with the writing of the file. I tried the postinstall config and noticed the step: 5 Create a test folder on HSDS: $ hstouch -u test_user1 -p /home/test_user1/test/ is missing the entrypoint (no error if I add it). But then on step 6 the loading of the h5 file is not going well (even if I add the correct entry point):
