Ranger Admin Not Starting After Ambari Upgrade

dsun — Mon, 09 Oct 2017 00:40:40 GMT

I am getting below errors while trying to start Ranger Admin after the latest Ambari upgrade from 2.5.1 to 2.5.2:

2017-10-08 17:30:03,646 - Check db_connection_check was unsuccessful. Exit code: 1. Message: ERROR: Unable to connect to the DB. Please check DB connection properties.

I confirmed 'rangerdba' user has proper privileges on the MySQL node:

I also checked MySQL connection from the Ranger Admin node to the MySQL instance is fine:

sqlline> !connect jdbc:mysql://scregionm2.field.hortonworks.com/mysql rangerdba BadPass#1 Connecting to jdbc:mysql://scregionm2.field.hortonworks.com/mysql Connected to: MySQL (version 5.6.35) Driver: MySQL-AB JDBC Driver (version mysql-connector-java-5.1.17-SNAPSHOT ( Revision: ${bzr.revision-id} )) Autocommit status: true Transaction isolation: TRANSACTION_REPEATABLE_READ 0: jdbc:mysql://scregionm2.field.hortonworks.> select version(); +------------+ | version() | +------------+ | 5.6.35 | +------------+ 1 row selected (0.031 seconds)

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

@dsun

It looks your ranger database is up and running correctly, can you validate that the in Ambari UI-->Ranger-->Configs--->Ranger Admin that the test connection works especially check the JDBC connect string for a Ranger database and the Ranger DB password.

Please let me know if you still encounter problems.

@Geoffrey Shelton Okot Forgot to mention in my original post, 'test connection' in Ambari was the first task I checked, and it failed, that's why I started digging further with above testing.

@dsun

Did you create a dump of the ranger batabase before the upgrade?

If not then create one,while looged in as mysql root user

mysqldump ranger > ranger_db.sql

It seems the below statement will fail as your current password is wrong.

mysql -u rangerdba -p{password}

Try the alternative to change the rangerdba password while logged on as mysql root user, below is an example

update user set password=PASSWORD('your_new_password') where User='user-name-here'; 
flush privileges;

Then use the new credentials in Ambari UI-->Ranger-->Configs--->Ranger Admin to test connection verify that it works

Hope that helps

thanks @Geoffrey Shelton Okot, but that didn't help, still seeing the same error, I assume somewhere along the upgrade went wrong, and I am checking the logs:

@Geoffrey Shelton Okot I ran 'hdp-select' on the host where Ranger Admin is installed just to check the components are running and noticed it's showing the older version 2.6.1.0-129:

[root@scregionm1 ~]# hdp-select | grep ranger ranger-admin - 2.6.1.0-129 ranger-kms - None ranger-tagsync - 2.6.1.0-129 ranger-usersync - 2.6.1.0-129

I went ahead manually updated the components version by running 'hdp-select set all 2.6.2.0-205', then restarted Ranger service, not it's working. As I expected, something went wrong during the upgrade which is still a mystery.

Thanks.

@dsun

I think nothing is wrong with the upgrade please run these 2 statements and it should resolve the problem

grant all privileges on *.* to 'rangerdba'@'scregionm1.field.hortonworks.com' identified by '{ranger_password}';
grant all privileges on *.* to 'rangerdba'@'localhost';

Please revert

Thanks @Geoffrey Shelton Okot, all privileges were granted to rangerdba properly as you can see from my original post. It's related to the upgrade, as Ambari is using the mysql-jdbc-driver under /usr/hdp/2.6.2.0-205/ranger-admin/ews/lib/ while everything else was running the 2.6.1 bits for some reason. The upgrade is stuck on some hosts, and I need to figure out why which is another issue I'm trying to resolve.
