CDP Trial Installation is taking hours...

[#1]

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to install the CDP trial version and the wizard is taking hours to finish. I'm not an expert, but the log seems okay. I did the command below to keep tracking the log. 

tail -f /var/log/cloudera-scm-server/cloudera-scm-server.log

and I got these as a result and never ends...

Can anyone help me?

Problem solved. I had to add the hostname on both files below. In my case: "RicoServerVM".

vi /etc/hosts
# Add the line below
192.168.0.90 RicoServerVM

vi /etc/sysconfig/network
HOSTNAME=RicoServerVM

and reboot the machine after. I hope it helps others.

Congratulations on solving your issue. Thanks for sharing in case it may assist others.

Hello,

Please check the following link with the hostname and /etc/hosts recommendations

https://docs.cloudera.com/cdpdc/7.0/installation/topics/cdpdc-configure-network-names.html

Additionally, remember that the hostnames must be fully qualified domain name (FQDN)

example:

1.1.1.1  foo-1.example.com  foo-1
2.2.2.2  foo-2.example.com  foo-2
3.3.3.3  foo-3.example.com  foo-3
4.4.4.4  foo-4.example.com  foo-4

This can also happen if you don't disable SELinux. It will hang until the command is run.
