Error 500 when adding new slice in Superset

[#1]

Hey everyone,

I have a HDP 2.6.1 cluster (4 nodes), with HDF management pack installed. Druid (therefore Superset) is installed, started and seems OK in Ambari. When I want to add new slice in Superset (http://superset_node.local:9088/slicemodelview/add) I receive this stacktrace:

        Traceback (most recent call last):

        for source in sources:
            ds = db.session.query(SourceRegistry.sources[source]).first()

                break

        redirect_url = "/r/msg/?url={}&msg={}".format(url, msg)
        return redirect(redirect_url)

On the cluster there's a MySQL installed. A database and a user 'superset' is created, access granted for the user. In Ambari everything seems to configured properly. I tried to reinstall and reconfigure Druid but the problem is the same again.

Thanks for the help in advance.

I don't know if you still have the problem but I faced the same issue in our cluster (2.6.0) and the problem is that the

"Broker Port" information inside the Druid cluster created by ambari was not good. It should be 8082

Best.

[#3]

The Druid Broker port is already set to 8082. 😞

[#4]

I ran into the same issue

there seems to be a bug fix in place or at least a redirection in place

https://github.com/SalehHindi/superset/commit/5dd1aefdf0d3a73d9dff6436031f4d88e618eac5

you can edit the views.py as referenced above under /usr/hdp/current/druid-superset/lib/python3.4/site-packages/superset

[#5]

you will need to restart superset after the modification

Hello Attila Fabian, did you solve this problem?, I`m geting the same error when I try to create a new slice. If Yes can you explain the solution?.

tks!!

[#7]

Hey!

Unfortunately I couldn't solve the problem, I gave up using Druid. 😞

Hope you can solve it.

Bye:

Attila
