NiFi doesnt start on red-hat 6.8

Roy — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 05:10:44 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to install NiFi on redhat 6.8 withing following steps

wget http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDF/2.0.1.0/HDF-2.0.1.0-12.tar.gz
tar -zxf HDF-2.0.1.0-12.tar.gz
cd HDF-2.0.1.0-12/nifi
bin/nifi.sh start

After this I see following messages in logs

[root@abc000732 nifi]# tailf logs/nifi-bootstrap.log

I have oracle java (1.8.0_60) installed on this VM and iptables is off and selinux is disabled.

Anyone know whats wrong with this. Same steps works on Centos 6.8

Please check in the nifi-app.log file, not bootstrap. Most probably there is a service in your host already taking the 8080 port. You can edit conf/nifi.properties and modify the port to a non-conflicting one.

Ok, it looks like an environmental issue with random entropy collection. There are several ways to solve it, pick your choice based on prod/non-prod requirements. There was a previous discussion with some suggestions here: https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/58436/hdf-20-handing-on-restart.html
