I recently upgraded to Alpha 14. After upgrading, I created a new platform with D7 B1 as the code base. Aegir created and verified the platform.

The platform was listed in the right sidebar and also in the View of all platforms. However, the create site form did not list the new platform.

I then took the approach of creating the D7 B1 site outside of Aegir with the idea that I'd import it. I installed the D7 B1 site in my usual /var/www/html directory and all worked well. I thien followed the Importing Existing Sites documentation here:

http://groups.drupal.org/node/24992

After following these instructions, the imported site would not work because the settings.php file had not been updated correctly. The database connection information in settings.php was blank.

Are you aware that in recent releases of aegir, one chooses the install profile first before the platform, in the Create Site form?

Drupal 7 doesn't have a 'default' profile, so the presence f the Drupal 7 platform may have been hidden.

Choose Standard or Minimal profile and the platform will probably appear.

I was confused by this UI as well. Perhaps the Platform description should indicate that it will only show platforms containing the install profile?
