# Stackdriver sample for Google Compute Engine
This sample demonstrates how to use [Stackdriver](https://cloud.google.com/error-reporting/) on Google Compute Engine
## Running on Compute Engine
1. Create a compute instance on the Google Cloud Platform Developer's Console
1. SSH into the instance you created
1. Update packages and install required packages
    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install git-core openjdk-8-jdk maven
1. Follow the instructions to [Install the Stackdriver Logging Agent](https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/agent/installation)
1. Create /etc/google-fluentd/config.d/forward.conf and add
    <source>
      type forward
      port 24224
    </source>
1. Restart the logging agent
    sudo service google-fluentd restart
1. Clone the repo
    git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/java-docs-samples.git
1. Navigate to the Stackdriver sample folder
    java-docs-samples/compute/stackdriver
1. Make sure that openjdk 8 is the selected java version
    sudo update-alternatives --config java
1. Use maven to package the class as a jar
    mvn clean package
1. Switch to the target folder and execute the jar file
    java -jar compute-stackdriver-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar
1. On the Developer's Console, navigate to Stackdriver Error Reporting and verify that the sample
   error was logged.
