problems with ambari wizard

Hi everybody.
I’m trying to install HDP 1.2 on amazon (small instance).

I followed the documentation, and i have installed ambari server.

When i try to start ambari everything seems ok.
this is the message log:

Using python /usr/bin/python2.6
Starting ambari-server
Checking iptables…
iptables is disabled now
Running server: /usr/jdk64/jdk1.6.0_31/bin/java -server -XX:NewRatio=2 -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -Xms512m -Xmx2048m -cp /etc/ambari-server/conf:/usr/lib/ambari-server/*:/usr/lib/ambari-server/*:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin:/usr/lib/ambari-server/* org.apache.ambari.server.controller.AmbariServer >/var/log/ambari-server/ambari-server.out 2>&1

if i check the ambari-server.out i find only this two lines:

[EL Info]: 2013-03-16 15:03:31.552–ServerSession(41912610)–EclipseLink, version: Eclipse Persistence Services – 2.4.0.v20120608-r11652
[EL Info]: connection: 2013-03-16 15:03:33.172–ServerSession(41912610)–file:/usr/lib/ambari-server/ambari-server-1.2.1.2.jar_ambari-postgres_user=ambari-server login successful

if i run this command: ps -ef | grep Ambari
i can’t find any process running

Obviously if i try to reach ambari wizard from http://:8080 nothing happens.

Can you help me please?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Rubens,

What is it that goes wrong when you try to start these services? Do their respective logs tell you anything?

Thanks,
Ted.

Thank you Larry.

I solved the problem.
It was a stupid hostname issue that caused several ambari-server errors.

Now i’m working on HBase, Hive, Zookeper issues.
When i try to start those services something goes wrong.

Hi, Rubens,

Thanks for trying HDP.

Can you please also check ambari-server.log?

You can also run following command to check if there is ambari java process running:
/usr/jdk64/jdk1.6.0_31/bin/jps

Another command to check if the port 8080:

netstat -an| grep 8080

Please let us know.

Thanks
Larry

Some additional information.

I’m running Centos 6.2

i don’t see any service listening on port 8080

i started httpd on port 80 just to test the connectivity and everything goes fine with it.
