Error installing on ubuntu

stampy88 — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 08:48:10 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to install using the cloudera manager installer. It is failing with the following error:

W: Failed to fetch http://archive.cloudera.com/gplextras/ubuntu/precise/amd64/gplextras/dists/precise-gplextras4/Release Unable to find expected entry 'contrib/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

dave

From what it looks like, you have 32 bit ubuntu installed, we only support 64bit installation at this point.

The message says it cannot find "contrib/binary-i386" which means the OS might be 32-bit. Are you able to show us the output of "uname -a"?

Could you show us the output of /etc/apt/sources.list please?

GautamG — Tue, 16 Dec 2014 05:13:53 GMT

sources.list contains repos for "trusty" whereas the earlier post was
looking at wheezy-cdh5. So I am a bit confused here. How did you
encounter the error message regarding Wheezy?

Re: Error installing on ubuntu

rajanish — Tue, 16 Dec 2014 06:01:56 GMT

wget http://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/installer/latest/cloudera-manager-installer.bin
chmod u+x cloudera-manager-installer.bin
sudo ./cloudera-manager-installer.bin

I followed these steps.

Re: Error installing on ubuntu

GautamG — Tue, 16 Dec 2014 06:58:39 GMT

I just tried installing Cloudera Manager with the same steps on a new Ubuntu 14.04 host and it worked fine. Are you able to look into the files in /var/log/cloudera-manager-installation and see what might be the problem? You can post the problematic logs here as well and we can try to assist

Re: Error installing on ubuntu

rajanish — Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:31:20 GMT

I found this : https://groups.google.com/a/cloudera.org/forum/#!topic/cdh-user/U2eJ8tZnPos

and changed the cloudera.list second entry by adding [arch=amd64] to make the file look like this

# packages for Cloudera Manager, Version 5, on Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64
deb [arch=amd64] http://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/ubuntu/trusty/amd64/cm trusty-cm5 contrib
deb-src [arch=amd64] http://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/ubuntu/trusty/amd64/cm trusty-cm5 contrib

Now there is a slight difference in the error message.

W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/universe/i18n/Translation-en Hash Sum mismatch

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Hope that helps.

Can any one help me with this error?

Re: Error installing on ubuntu

GautamG — Wed, 17 Dec 2014 10:01:53 GMT

Is this a fresh Ubuntu installation? I am not able to understand how a repo
for Wheezy (Debian) was added when the OS is Trusty (Ubuntu)

Are you able to track down where the wheezy repo is present and disable it?
Then try again.

Re: Error installing on ubuntu

GautamG — Fri, 19 Dec 2014 00:41:53 GMT

This is a bit baffling. I created a new Trusty VM, installed CM with
the .bin installer and it went through fine. I checked my apt
repositories and there was no mention of Wheezy. Note that Wheezy is
Debian and Trusty is Ubuntu. The .bin installer would not add the
wheezy bits to /etc/apt

Are you using an older machine/vm for this experiment? Can you check
all files under /etc/apt to see if the wheezy repositories are
present?

Re: Error installing on ubuntu

rajanish — Fri, 19 Dec 2014 01:21:36 GMT

looks like i had Wheezy repo on from some earlier instal. I removed it and it worked. sort of. I am now stuck at another error much further down the line. I will hunt around for the solution or open another thread.
