Cloudbreak UI is not able to connect cloudbreak

Everyday in the evening i stopped my cloudbreak VM and restart next morning while i start working. MY cloudbreak VM's Public IP is static, even though every time while starting cloud break VM, I am not able to access the cloud break UI. Then i need to execute cbd restart or cbd start. Sometimes before these two commands I need to execute cbd update . Then in azure I need to reset password . after all these i am able to see cloud break UI in browser. My question:

1. How can i resolve this issue? Restarting cloud break VM do i always need to to execute those commands everytime?

2. Today though i am able to access the UI, but its saying error "UI is not able to connect cloudbreak". Please see the snap shot.cbd-error.jpg

how to resolve this issue? FYI: I am using cloudbreak 2.5.0 on Azure. Thank you

Hi Marshal,

The Cloudbreak containers do not start on boot with the docker service. You can create a service and set to start on boot. Try this (working on CentOS 7):

  • Create a file: /usr/lib/systemd/system/cbd-start
  • Add to the file:
[Unit]
Description=Start Cloudbreak containers
After=docker.service

[Service]
Type=forking
WorkingDirectory=/var/lib/cloudbreak-deployment
ExecStart=/usr/bin/cbd start

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
  • Restart services:
systemctl daemon-reload
  • Enable service on boot:
systemctl enable cbd-start.service

After restart the VM, and Cloudbreak is running, you can access it via a browser.

Best regards,
Gergely

Hi @gtopolyai,

Thanks a lot for your response. The script is working. Thanks for the help.

But Having the same issue with the 2nd one. Cloudbreak UI is showing an error: please check the screenshot. cbd-error2.jpg and the password is not working initially. when resetting the password through Azure portal cbd-error3.jpg Then password works with error "The UI could not connect to cloudbreak "cbd-error.jpg. But last 3 weeks when i did not try restart my cloudbreak VM everything was working fine without any issue. what might be the problem here? please suggest.

Thank you.

Hi Marshal,

We have some issue with cbd start command. I suggest a workaround for you. Change this:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/cbd start

With this:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/cbd restart

This command is an alias for these commands:

cbd kill
cbd regenerate
cbd start

Best regards,
Gergely

Hi @gtopolyai,

Thanks for the update. Yeap, restart works better than only start.

But still "UI is not able to connect Cloudbreak."cbd-error.jpg In the credential section there is no credential available, where there was one before restart cbd-error4.jpg. Here is the cbd ps stratus: Is it because of cbreak_cloudbreak_1 is not in start state? I have tried to run the script " sh start_cloudbreak_app.sh " in that location. But it did not work.

Hi Marshal,

Could you please attach the logs?

You can save into a file with this command:

docker logs cbreak_cloudbreak_1 > cloudbreak.log

Thanks,
Gergely

Hi @Marshal Tito,

Please check if you have firewalld and SELinux disabled. These can cause the issues seen in the logs.
