Failed to connect to previous supervisor

avatar
Explorer

I've chosen to install CDH through Automated installer using Cloudera Manager, the download completes but unable to push through due this error:

 

Installation failed. Failed to receive heartbeat from agent.
Ensure that the host's hostname is configured properly.
Ensure that port 7182 is accessible on the Cloudera Manager Server (check firewall rules).
Ensure that ports 9000 and 9001 are not in use on the host being added.
Check agent logs in /var/log/cloudera-scm-agent/ on the host being added. (Some of the logs can be found in the installation details).
If Use TLS Encryption for Agents is enabled in Cloudera Manager (Administration -> Settings -> Security), ensure that /etc/cloudera-scm-agent/config.ini has use_tls=1 on the host being added. Restart the corresponding agent and click the Retry link here.

However upon checking the details, I saw Failed to connect to previous supervisor in this error details:

Installation script completed successfully.

This is my current setup.

CentOS 7.2
Installing CDH 5.11.1 or 5.12 using Cloudera Manager.
4 nodes

/etc/hosts

192.168.0.101 node1.cirro.com node1
192.168.0.102 node2.cirro.com node2
192.168.0.103 node3.cirro.com node3
192.168.0.104 node4.cirro.com node4

/etc/sysconfig/network

NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=myservers*.cirro.com
NOZEROCONF=yes

/etc/ssh/sshd_config

PermitRootLogin yes
PasswordAuthentication yes

hostname has also been set per node to reflect /etc/sysconfig/network.

sestatus = disabled
firewalld = inactive
ntpd = active (running)
httpd = active (running)
vm.swappiness = 10
user = passwordless sudo
/etc/rc.local has been set

Can anyone help me on this? I've been stuck with this for 2 weeks now. I've run out of options and searching online. It would be really appreciated!

This is what I did instead. I followed Path B and downloaded 5.11.1 version instead. Solved all of my problems.

Whats the status of cloudera-scm-server,Cloudera-scm-server-db,Cloudera-scm-agent ? 

I assume you are using Path A  - installer.bin script ? right 

 

did you try loggin in cloudera manager web ui like http://localhost:7180 or http://your_hostname:7180.

/etc/init.d/cloudera-scm-agent status
Checking for service cloudera-scm-agent * cloudera-scm-agent is not running  - It fails on start because of supevisor daemon. It is unaccessible. and it is not started during installation without any error. i am thinking about move supervisord.conf from working cluster in order to start supervisord

i am really believe that something wrong with cloudera-manager-installer.bin package.  I have already installed 10 clusters of different CM versions and can do it with closed eye. But i am stuck with this new version.

Believe it or not, I made it work using 5.11.1 in my first try, then came the 5.12, I could no longer install any package. There must be something wrong with the new release.

and another strange thing. I am trying to install old versions (which i have installed many times ) and download .bin packege directly for 11 version from repository (for example wget http://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/installer/5.11.1/cloudera-manager-installer.bin).  But the only option avaliable during installation is 5.12 ! Tried a few times with the same results...

@darkdante

 

The commuity had some kernel version compatability issue a month back if I remember 

You should be  good with 5.12 we are using 5.12 guess what HUE interface has some new functionalties and many more

I've experiened the same problem on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with Cloudera CDH 5.12

 

Out of 5 nodes, 4 upgraded with no problems, while the 5th has mentioned issue. All instances were working fine on CDH 5.11

 

One clue is the fact that supervisord directories were created but are empty

 

Is there a way to enable additional logging for supervisord during installation?

see if you have multiple supervisord runining 

ps aux   |   grep supervisor

share the logs  to see whats it is complain about supervisord
