To verify if Oracle Java was installed correctly, could you provide:

# rpm -qa | grep oracle
# ls -l /usr/java

how to set JAVA_HOME?

If you check the script /usr/share/cmf/bin/cmf-server on the host running
Cloudera Manager, you will see some checks for existing JDK locations. One
of them is /usr/java/jdk1.7* which matches your ls listing.

re you able to run the "bin/java" program from that location and see if it
prints the right version?

# /usr/java/jdk1.7*/bin/java -version

Re: Error: JAVA_HOME is not set and Java could not be found

Grizzly — Fri, 26 Sep 2014 21:05:49 GMT

you can set "JAVA_HOME" in /etc/defaults/cloudera-scm-server

add to the end of the file

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_55

Thank you for your help

I set the java_home in /etc/default/cloudera-scm-server with 'export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_55-cloudera',but when click 'test connection' in Add Cloudera ManagementService with browser,i got the same error 'Unexpected error. Unable to verify database connection.', and the /var/log/cloudera-scm-server/cloudera-scm-server.log file show like this:

OK so realize NONE of this should be necessary, and this is not normal to need to configure things this way. It is not necessary to have to set JAVA_HOME.

I think we need to focus on this part of the message, rather than the JAVA_HOME message which appears to be a false-positive error.

INFO [JvmPauseMonitor:debug.JvmPauseMonitor@236] Detected pause in JVM or host machine (e.g. a stop the world GC, or JVM not scheduled): paused approximately 1024ms: no GCs detected.

How much memory is configured for your VM you are attempting to run things on? How much physical memory does the system you are running the VM on have?

It appears the 1.7 openJDK has been installed as well, which is alongside of the oracle JDK on the system.

What do you get for the following commands on the system:

# ls -l /usr/java

# yum list installed "*jdk*"

Thanks

Thank you for your reply!

The memory is configured for my VM i'm attempting to run things on is 512MB, and physical memory the system i'm running the VM on is 8GB.

The following commands on the system get like this:

# ls -l /usr/java

total 4
drwxr-xr-x. 8 root root 4096 Sep 19 18:05 jdk1.7.0_55-cloudera

Ok at this point I would suggest reviewing the "requirements" section, here.

http://www.cloudera.com/content/cloudera-content/cloudera-docs/CM5/latest/Cloudera-Manager-Installation-Guide/cm5ig_cm_requirements.html

Also realize you need memory for CDH, so running the VM at a minimum of 4GB memory is necessary.

The issue you are seeing is because there is not enough memory, Cloudera Manager and CDH are memory intensive applicaitons. The JAVA_HOME error message you are seeing is due to this (the message is a false indication of the problem, as I stated in my previous note.

Thank you very much!

I set the memory of VM to 4GB,but i got the same error.

No, that should not be necessary. Are there error messages in the cloudera manager logs? Exceptions maybe?
