Re: Ambari 2.1.0 on HDP 2.3 problem deploying HDFS

[Ian Soboroff]

This is Ambari 2.1.0, as distributed by HDP. # /usr/sbin/ambari-server --hash d6cb8d46a4828e33910df6f58c33432fa1d4ed89 I see a couple JS exceptions but they are about keys in storm-site.xml, so I'm not sure they are related.  I've attached the console dump I get after reloading the settings page. This is what is at that API link: { "href" : "http://zealand.ncsl.nist.gov:8080/api/v1/clusters/retrieval/configurations?type=hdfs-site", "items" : [ ] } Ian

Can you provide the output of 'ambari-server --hash' command? Also, do you see any _javascript_ exceptions? I have just attempted to reproduce the issue by adding HDFS service, but do not see the issue (screenshot attached). If you are not entering any /home value, and Ambari is not providing it by default, I am trying to figure out where it is coming from. <Screen Shot 2015-07-31 at 10.57.13 AM.png> What output do you see when you go to following URL in browser? http://[ambari-server]:8080/api/v1/clusters/[cluster-name]/configurations?type=hdfs-site - Replace [ambari-server] with your Ambari server hostname - Replace [cluster-name] with your cluster ID - Make sure you are logged in Regards, Srimanth From: Ian Soboroff <ian.sobor...@nist.gov> Sent: Friday, July 31, 2015 10:48 AM To: user@ambari.apache.org Subject: Re: Ambari 2.1.0 on HDP 2.3 problem deploying HDFS   I haven't set the value of 'NameNode directories' to anything.  The interface doesn't let me.

We show that error when it does - https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/trunk/ambari-web/app/utils/validator.js#L96 (screenshot attached) What is strange in your case is that it does not show the text area so that you correct it. Can you detail the exact actions that resulted in this outcome? Alternatively, do you see any _javascript_ errors in the _javascript_ console, and have you tried it in other browsers?

When I go to install HDFS, I get to service customization, and it won't let me set a NameNode directory.  I've attached a screenshot.  When I hover the mouse over the 'NameNode directories' alert, the mouseover text says "Can't start with home(s)".  At this point there is no way to proceed with the installation.
