Thanks Srimanth,
a) Yes got this point. We followed this way and it was able to register
the agents without problems, ie, the Ambari Server still uses jdk1.6 but
all the services will be invoked from
the custom jdk.
b) No , this has happened only once for us.
c) Another issue we found is that , even if I remove ambari. (yum remove
ambari\*) this is not removing the postgres.
We were starting freshly the ambari and cluster setup, but some of the
processes were not starting. From the logs
it was surprising to find the old cluster info;

(DevCluster1 is our new cluster and NewDevCluster is old)
This means that , even after removing ambari, the are still other
process which are left out which makes it harder to fully reset a
cluster setup.
Maybe we should have done ambari-reset, but it would be nice if ambari
can take care of the db that it installs by itself.
Or maybe we can add this point to the document somewhere ?
Thanks

Hi Vivek,
a) When using custom JDKs, the process is to make the JDK path (say
/usr/lib/java-1.7.0) available on all the hosts where Ambari will run
(server and agents). Then run ambari-server setup selecting the custom
JDK path - this will update the ambari.properties with the right path.
Start ambari-server, and during host registration page, provide the
same path again in 'Path to 64-bit JDK JAVA_HOME'. Finish setup.
Please try these steps out. If jdk paths exist on all hosts, various
services do start with that VM, and you still see the certificate
issue, please open JIRAs regarding these.
b) Does the installer redirect happen frequently for you after installs?
Stopping ambari-server does not stop the agents.

Srimanth

Hi Srimanth,
Thanks again for your valuable inputs.
a) We change the jre before ambari server setup.
The below are the steps we followed .
1. Installed ambari
2. In the ambari.properties changed, the port and the jdk
to 1.7
3. Ran ambari setup (did not install jdk1.6)
4. Started ambari. And chose Auto Install of agents. Which
failed saying;
INFO 2013-07-04 09:38:00,378 security.py:49 - SSL Connect
being called.. connecting to the server
INFO 2013-07-04 09:38:00,563 Controller.py:99 - Unable to
connect to: https://xxxxx:8441/agent/v1/register/xxxxxx
5.Stopped the ambari-server, changed jdk, did setup again.
6. This time it installed jdk 1.6, and agents were
successfully registered.
b) Yes, with this url, everything was functional as normal. I was
able to see all status , perform conf change,start-stop etc. I
guess it is a problem with the url redirect.
Extremely sorry abt this, but we have removed our old setup and
starting fresh. We need to hit the production soon, so we are
experimenting rigorously.
c) As I mentioned in my first mail, the .ini was proper after the
initial trial. We removed the rpm, and did retry, but still no
luck. It seemed like the first value was
cached somewhere.
* We added some logs in the main.py expecting to see it in
the agent logs.
Another point that we have noticed is that, stopping ambari server
doesn't stop the agents.Not sure whether this is the usual
behavior or some problem with our setup.
The jdk issue is our major concern currently as we have worked
around for others. I will look more into the keystore point.
Thanks
Vivek

Hi Vivek,
a) Did you change the JRE before of after setup+install? If you
changed it after install, there might ssh keys not in the
keystore of the new VM.
b) When it does go back to installer, which page does it goto,
and does it have values pre-populated?
Also, can you please go
to http://ambari:port/api/v1/persist/CLUSTER_CURRENT_STATUS and
provide the value for "clusterState" key.
c) Ambari agents have /etc/ambari-agent/conf/ambari-agent.ini
which points to server hostname/port. This might have been
initialized with 'localhost' resulting in failure, till it was
fixed by removal.
Hope that helped.

Hi Srimanth,
Thanks for the response my replies below. I am using
HDP-1.3.0.0.
a) It was a https call made to ambari server from agent;
INFO 2013-07-04 09:38:00,378 security.py:49 - SSL Connect
being called.. connecting to the server
INFO 2013-07-04 09:38:00,563 Controller.py:99 - Unable to
connect to: https://xxxxx:8441/agent/v1/register/xxxxxx
If i change the jdk to 1.6, it starts working.
b) When I manually acess the url, I can properly see the
status, gangalia, do start/stop, config changes etc.
It doesnt jump back to the installer.
c)
Was the ambari-server started on localhost initially perhaps?
This could be. But after we corrected other machines, we
did ambari-server reset.
Next time it failed saying the same localhost, even
though the conf was proper.
Hence we removed rpm, but still did not help and finally
deleted /etc/ambari-agent and /usr/lib/ambari*. Which helped.
(Everytime we were doing retry for that machine installation
alone)
d) Sure will have a look at the agent logs next time.
Thanks
Vivek

Hi Vivek,
Wanted to find out the version of Ambari you are using.
a) What sort of communication failures were you seeing? If
there is anything specific in logs that you can share?
b) UI jumping to installer after login means that the server
says installation is not complete. Did you notice any errors
during install? Also when it does go back to installer,
which page of installer does it end on, and are any previous
values populated?
When you do manually go to http://xxx:5858/#/main/dashboard
- does it stay there, or jump back to installer after a few
clicks?
c) Ambari server should be setup on a hostname (hostname -f)
from where agent nodes can talk back.
Was the ambari-server started on localhost initially perhaps?
When some agent hosts had server as localhost - did you
install agent manually?
d) Ganglia server component failed to install for some
reason. The agent logs on that node should contain
exceptions of why it failed. Fixing that issue should help.

Srimanth

Hi,
I was trying out ambari to setup a cluster and we faced
some of the below issues. Would be great if someone
could throw some light on these;
a) Is it possible to run ambari with jdk1.7. We are
seeing some communication failures while using 1.7 for
ambari.
But prior to ambari we have tested our hadoop programs
with 1.7 and everything went well. And all of
our code base is in 1.7. (we have no native apps)
b) After a cluster setup finished successfully,we are
able to see the dashborad etc. But after few clicks or
if i am accessing
it from a different machine it again redirects me to the
installation page.
I figured out that manually entering the below urls only
can help us. (our port is 585. and browser cache is cleared)
http://xxx:5858/#/main/dashboard
c) During our process of hadoop deployment and
installation, some servers failed (ssh access) and some
passed .
So we had to reset and start from the beginning. But
this time those which passed earlier are failing now,
since it thinks that the ambari server is 'localhost' .
The property in the /etc/...ini file the server ip was
proper. So, we tried the following in those failed machines
* Remove rpm,reset ambari - This did not work on retry
* Remove the rpm,delete /etc/ambari-agent, delete
/usr/lib/ambari* , retry – It worked
Does this mean that the rpm -e did not remove all the
files? Is there anything extra we need to care take in
such scenarios
d) Hadoop installation and deployment gets successful at
random retries. When it fails only message we saw was ;
ERROR ServiceComponentHostImpl:721 – Can’t handle
ServiceComponentHostEvent event at current state,
serviceComponentName=GANGLIA_SERVER,
hostName=server233.xxxxxx, currentState=INSTALL_FAILED,
