Hi Stan, Now a days for creating a fresh working edx, all in one VM the scenario is very easy and one of the best. It just requires an internet connection for downloading all the required stuffs. Once the installation is done, you will have a full running edx environment.
https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OpenOPS/pages/146440579/Native+Open+edX+Ubuntu+16.04+64+bit+Installation Just 5 steps for a default setup and 6 steps for custom setups. Its working perfectly, I have tested it many times. Half part is successful now, mysql part is working fine. Hope to find the monodb part soon. OpenEdx helped me to learn the new stuffs like mongodb and ansible. Thanks Stan.... Your words are really inspirational.... Thanks Again...
