Hi, I’m new to zookeeper but am at a loss after trying loads of things: - On running zkServer.sh start I get a report that it has started, - But on checking the status I’m told there’s a connection error. - And on stopping I’m told it wasn’t even running
Here’s the exact output: --------------- jwyngaard@Head:~$ zkServer.sh start JMX enabled by default Using config: /usr/local/zookeeper/zookeeper-3.4.6/bin/../conf/zoo.cfg Starting zookeeper ... STARTED jwyngaard@Head:~$ zkServer.sh status JMX enabled by default Using config: /usr/local/zookeeper/zookeeper-3.4.6/bin/../conf/zoo.cfg Error contacting service. It is probably not running. jwyngaard@Head:~$ zkServer.sh stop JMX enabled by default Using config: /usr/local/zookeeper/zookeeper-3.4.6/bin/../conf/zoo.cfg Stopping zookeeper ... /usr/local/zookeeper/zookeeper-3.4.6/bin/zkServer.sh: line 143: kill: (2656) - No such process STOPPED ------------------ - My config file is simply the sample with 2 servers added. I’ve created and pointed to a data directory and given the machines their own myids. - This is being run on 2 VirtualBox Ubuntu VMs, both with NAT and host-only static IP (which Zookeeper targets) network connections - Identical problem on both VMs The really odd thing is there are no log files reporting what the issue is. In the target data directory I get a PID file and a empty directory called “version-2” but that’s it. I’ve played around with the VM network settings extensively, and tried forcing ports open, but I’m not really sure what the issue is, just assuming its a network problem. Both machines are ssh accessible from the host, can access the outside world and each other, and have no firewalls. I’ve seen the couple of reports online of a similar issue but none of the solutions/situations offered match this exactly. Anyone have any ideas? Much thanks! Jane
