Ambari Server and Web Client versions do not match

[#1]

Im using ambari 2.4.1 and HDP 2.5 which was running absolutely fine. I have tried installing apache eagle on the clsuter and in the process ran eagle-ambari.sh script and from then onwards, i cant open ambari with version mismatch error. There is no much info on the earlier posts.

You will need to do a Hard Refresh on your browser.

For Example if you are using MAC (Google Chrome) then press "command + shift + R".

Clear the browser cache.

OR

try opening the browser in "Incognito Mode" (New Private Window) option from the Browser Menu.

Hi @Jay SenSharma i have tried refresh and "Incognito Mode" but they didn't work.

This also happens sometimes if all the ambari RPMs are not properly upgraded. So can you please run the following command on ambari host and share the results (To see if all the RPM versions are same?)

# rpm -qa | grep ambari

.

Hi @Jay SenSharma below are the details.

[root@server ~]#

[root@server ~]# rpm -qa | grep ambari

ambari-infra-solr-client-2.4.1.0-22.x86_64

ambari-metrics-hadoop-sink-2.4.1.0-22.x86_64

ambari-agent-2.4.1.0-22.x86_64

ambari-server-2.4.1.0-22.x86_64

Is that happening on any other browser as well ? (As normally it is related to browser caching)

[#7]

Hi @Jay SenSharma its on all browsers. i have tried uninstalling eagle ambari plugin as well that didn't work.

[#8]

@Jay SenSharma any idea where the amabri web client verion details are stored??

[#9]

I was able to come out of the error by manually editing the app.version parameter in /usr/lib/ambari-server/web/javascripts/app.js script.

var App = require('app');

App.version = '2.4.1.0';

But now my ambari UI is stuck in below screen.

You are not supposed to change the "/usr/lib/ambari-server/web/javascripts/app.js" manually.

If the ambari installation is properly done then you should get the correct version mentioned in the "app.js". Because this is done at the Ambari RPM Build time.

Ambari uses the following script to update the App.version during the time of RPM build.

https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/release-2.4.1/ambari-web/set-ambari-version.sh#L24

.

So if you see that your "/usr/lib/ambari-server/web/javascripts/app.js" was showing some other version then it indicates that during ambari upgrade on that host this file was not upgraded properly and hence there may be some other files as well that might not be upgraded properly which might be causing the Stuck UI issue.

.

Please try doing a ambari re-install as following to see it it helps: (Always recommended to take a fresh DB dump for safety)

yum reinstall ambari-server 

.

Can you let us know what was the older verison mentioned in the "App.version" ? Was it showing "2.0.0" earlier before your manual edit ?
