we are getting the following error

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not find leader nimbus from seed hosts [localhost]. Did you specify a valid list of nimbus hosts for config nimbus.seeds at backtype.storm.utils.NimbusClient.getConfiguredClientAs(NimbusClient.java:90) at backtype.storm.StormSubmitter.submitTopologyAs(StormSubmitter.java:225) at backtype.storm.StormSubmitter.submitTopology(StormSubmitter.java:271) at backtype.storm.StormSubmitter.submitTopology(StormSubmitter.java:157) at com.storm.test.myStorm.helloStorm.main(helloStorm.java:24)

please review information in this doc

https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.4.3/bk_secure-storm-ambari/content/ch_secure-st...

Add the following settings to the /etc/storm/conf/storm.yaml configuration file:

nimbus.seeds: <nimbus-host-array>
nimbus.thrift.port: 6667
java.security.auth.login.config: "/etc/storm/conf/client_jaas.conf"
storm.thrift.transport: "backtype.storm.security.auth.kerberos.KerberosSaslTransportPlugin"

where <nimbus-host-array> is an array of hostnames running Nimbus. (The value should come from /etc/storm/conf/storm.yaml.) For example:

nimbus.seeds: ["c6401.ambari.apache.org", "c6402.ambari.apache.org"]

Connect to zookeeper and delete the znode dir related to storm service and restart both "zookeeper" and "storm" service.

/usr/hdp/current/zookeeper-server/bin/zkCli.sh -server <hostname>:2181

[zk: <hostname>:2181(CONNECTED) 0]ls /

[zk: <hostname>:2181(CONNECTED) 0]rmr /storm
