Unable to start Zookeeper - LoginException: connect timed out

HeathG — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 14:43:22 GMT

We are still running an old version of Clouder, v 5.15.0 (almost at the end of work upgrading) and a few hours ago users reported queries in Hue were not running. CM reported a number of issues so we decided to restart the entire cluster.

Zookeeper will not start, the error seen is below. There is a timeout issue that we've not been able to solve. There were no changes made at the time.

Hoping someone will have an idea we can try.

@HeathG Can you confirm were there any changes made on the cluster

If your cluster is kerberized can you try increasing kdc_timeout value in /etc/krb5.conf and they try restarting the zookeeper

Hi @Scharan there were no changes in the cluster at all. It turned out to be a networking issue, some changes were made to a heap of non prod networks but it affected our prod network. Once they were rolled back everything started up OK.
