Apache Metron Single Node installation problems

Hi,

I am trying to setup single node via vagrant but no matter what i try it keeps up throwing error. Can you please guide what could be the solution ?

TASK [libselinux-python : Install libselinux-python] ***************************

fatal: [node1]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "ERROR! The conditional check 'result.rc == 0' failed. The error was: ERROR! error while evaluating conditional (result.rc == 0): ERROR! 'dict object' has no attribute 'rc'"}

After this i tried vagrant provision which solved that but gave a new kind of error.

TASK [yum-update : Yum Update Packages] ****************************************

fatal: [node1]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "ERROR! The conditional check 'result.rc == 0' failed. The error was: ERROR! error while evaluating conditional (result.rc == 0): ERROR! 'dict object' has no attribute 'rc'"}

@Farrukh Anjum

Hi Farrukh,

Could you please ensure you are running the metron installation with the following versions of ansible and vagrant?

ansible= 2.0.0.2
Vagrant =1.8.1

Inorder to debug the mentioned issue,will need the log at the verbose level so would request you to run ansible provisioning by adding the following line in your Vagrantfile.(metron-deployment/vagrant/quick-dev-platform/Vagrantfile)

ansible.verbose = "vvv"

Regards,

Neha

On top of ansible and vagrant versions mentioned by @Neha Sinha, it is important to have Python 2.7.11. I believe this error is due to incorrect python version.

I had earlier successfully deployed a 12-node Metron cluster on EC2 using a Ubuntu 14.04 box. Here are the steps that worked for me.

  • Installed Linuxbrew
  • Installed Java 1.8.0 and mvn 3.3.9
  • Python 2.7.11 with virtualenv (see this post for details)
  • Install Ansible ver 2.0.0.2 (after activating the virtualenv, using the command 'pip install ansible==2.0.0.2')
  • Install Virtualbox 5.0.16 and Vagrant 1.8.1

Can you post the output of 'incubator-metron/metron-deployment/scripts/platform-info.sh' from your setup?

I can see that you're missing the following because of which you're running into the issues.

- Python needs to be 2.7.x (you're having 2.6.6)

- ansible needs to be 2.0.0.2 (you're running on 2.1.1.0)

- Java needs to be 1.8.x (and you're running with 1.7.0_111)

Can you fix the above and retry?

For your reference, here's the output from my single node setup (it is from a Mac box, but nevertheless)
