Not able to install cloudera manager databases

abhishes — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 09:15:39 GMT

Hello,

I have download all cloudera rpms and the postgressql rpms in a directory

cloudera-manager-agent-5.2.1-1.cm521.p0.109.el6.x86_64.rpm
cloudera-manager-daemons-5.2.1-1.cm521.p0.109.el6.x86_64.rpm
cloudera-manager-server-5.2.1-1.cm521.p0.109.el6.x86_64.rpm
cloudera-manager-server-db-2-5.2.1-1.cm521.p0.109.el6.x86_64.rpm

postgresql-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm postgresql-plperl-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm
postgresql-contrib-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm postgresql-plpython-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm
postgresql-devel-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm postgresql-pltcl-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm
postgresql-docs-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm postgresql-server-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm
postgresql-libs-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm postgresql-test-8.4.20-1.el6_5.x86_64.rpm
postgresql-odbc-08.04.0200-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

Now I have done a createrepo on this and am running Python -M SimpleHTTPServer. I also have set my cloudera-manager.repo file to point this HTTP Server

I was succeful in doing

sudo yum install oracle-j2sdk1.7

sudo yum install cloudera-manager-daemons cloudera-manager-server

but when I try to install the database by

sudo yum install cloudera-manager-server-db-2

it says

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: cloudera-manager-server-db-2-5.2.1-1.cm521.p0.109.el6.x86_64 (cloudera-manager)
Requires: postgresql-server >= 8.4
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

but you can see that I have copied the postgresql* rpms in the same directory. So why doesn't it just use them?

Can you run:
# yum clean all
# yum makecache
# yum list | grep postgres

What repo does the postgres show up under?

thanks you pointed me to the right direction. actually I by default it tries to go to the internet but I am using only local rpms

so to solve the issue i did

sudo yum -y --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=cloudera-manager,c6-media install cloudera-server-manager-db-2

now it was able to pick up postgressql successfully.

Thank you so much.

Hi, I'm running into the exact same error and tried the resolution as suggested. However, in my case, its NOT working. I still get the same error. Any suggestion why its not working for me. I would greatly appreciate your help.

My scenario:

1. I've all my rpms in my local dir and this box doesn't have access to internet.

/home/cloudera/install-files

2. My my-cloudera-af.repo file correctly points file location to the correct location:

[root@sandbox07 yum.repos.d]# ls
my-cloudera-af.repo redhat.repo rhel-source.repo
[root@sandbox07 yum.repos.d]# cat my-cloudera-af.repo
[my-cloudera-af-repo]
# Couldera Packages used for EnergyIP Analytic Foundation Implementation
name = my-cloudera-af
baseurl = file:///home/cloudera/install-files/
gpgkey = file:///home/cloudera/install-files/RPM-GPG-KEY-cloudera
gpgcheck = 0

3. Running the suggested yum command still result to the same error.

[root@sandbox07 install-files]# yum -y --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=my-cloudera-af-repo install cloudera-manager-server-db-2

4. Running 'yum clean all', 'yum makecache' and finally 'yum list installed | grep postgre' gives the following result. Apparently these postgre* are already installed and has link to Redhat server. Not sure if this is causing the issue.

[root@sandbox07 yum.repos.d]# yum list installed|grep postgre

@shasta,

This looks like a yum problem.

yum is looking for "postgresql-server" and cannot find it...

Try running "yum list |grep postgres-server"

As a workaround, you could install the packages manually using "yum localinstall" perhaps

to clarify, "yum list |grep postgres-server" was intended to show in which repository the package is found.

Re: Not able to install cloudera manager databases

shasta — Tue, 12 Dec 2017 01:31:23 GMT

yum list |grep postgres-server does NOT return anything.

yum --nogpgcheck localinstall cloudera-manager-server-db-2-5.8.0-1.cm580.p0.40.el6.x86_64.rpm gives me the exact same error.

FYI that I got the cloudera files (including repodata) from the following locations: http://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/repo-as-tarball/5.8.0/

And to have embeded postgresql db installed, my understanding is that i don't have to install any other external db separately.

Thanks much for looking into the issue

Apparently, the problem was with the 'repodata' I had. The issue got resolved once I created the new repodata for my install-dir where I had all my install files.

I downloaded and installed 'createrepo' tool first and then ran the following using the tool:

createrepo /home/cloudera/install-files

This created a new repodata dir and the files and after this my installation succeeded without any error.
