Ambari-server:command not found

[#1]

ambari-server-status.png

I logged in to sandbox, started all services from Start-scripts folder, it displayed status 'starting ambari server/agent'. Later when I checked amabri-server status, it was showing command not found. Attached screenshot.

Can you please help me understand what is the issue or if I did something wrong.

Hi,

Sandbox Hortonworks 2.5 is dockerized. See

http://hortonworks.com/hadoop-tutorial/learning-the-ropes-of-the-hortonworks-sandbox for more information.

Connect throught ssh on port 2222 if you want.

@Viswa, There can be few possibilities on why couldn't you find ambari-server.

1. Ambari -server is Running but its missing from PATH

In this case, can you please check if ambari-server is actually running ? Run ps aux to check if Ambari server is running.

[root@xxx ~]# ps aux | grep ambari-server
root       83696  6.2  0.3 17957784 958424 ?     Sl   07:02  56:53 /usr/lib/jvm/java-openjdk/bin/java -server -XX:NewRatio=3 -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=60 -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled -Dsun.zip.disableMemoryMapping=true -Xms512m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -Djava.security.auth.login.config=/etcambari-server/conf/krb5JAASLogin.conf -Djava.security.krb5.conf=/etc/krb5.conf -Djavax.security.auth.useSubjectCredsOnly=false -cp /etc/ambari-server/conf:/usr/lib/ambari-server/*:/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar org.apache.ambari.server.controller.AmbariServer

try to find out where is ambari-server installed. In most of the environment, ambari-server can be found at /usr/sbin/ambari-server.

find / -name "ambari-server"

Try running ambari-server --help with full path. It should print out message as below.

root@xxx ~]# /usr/sbin/ambari-server --help

Using python  /usr/bin/python

Usage: /usr/sbin/ambari-server

        {start|stop|reset|restart|upgrade|status|upgradestack|setup|setup-jce|setup-ldap|sync-ldap|set-current|setup-security|refresh-stack-hash|backup|restore|update-host-names|check-database|enable-stack|setup-sso|db-cleanup|install-mpack|uninstall-mpack|upgrade-mpack|setup-kerberos} [options]

        Use /usr/sbin/ambari-server.py <action> --help to get details on options available.

        Or, simply invoke ambari-server.py --help to print the options.

In this case, it is likely that /usr/sbin is missing from path.

Please add /usr/bin to path with export PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin

2. Ambari server failing

Check if ambari server is running, with ps -aux | grep ambari.

If you do not find ambari server process, please check a log for ambari-server. You can find ambari server logs at /var/log/ambari-server/ambari-server.log

@yvora thank you. Am trying to understand in a multi node cluster, how to find on which node is ambari-server installed.

[#5]

@Viswa, Refer to "2.1 USE TERMINAL TO FIND THE HOST IP SANDBOX RUNS ON" section in below document.

https://hortonworks.com/hadoop-tutorial/learning-the-ropes-of-the-hortonworks-sandbox/#explore-ambar...

From above steps find out the ambari host. Typically 1st node has ambari server running.

After figuring out ambari-server host , you can follow steps from 1st comment to see if you can access ambari-sever.

[#6]

If still not able to find, here you go use below command (modify IPs as your environment) and run any node to find out entire cluster which node runs on ambari-server.

for i in {1..6}; do ssh 192.168.0.5$i "hostname;ps -eaf |grep ambari-server; echo -e '\n'";done

[#7]

@Viswa, try using sudo service ambari-server restart instead
