I downloaded the cloudera-manager-installer.bin today using the quick start instructions.

 

wget http://archive.cloudera.com/cm5/installer/latest/cloudera-manager-installer.bin

 

When I run it fails with the following error.

 

Installation failed.

 

cloudera-manager-server installation failed. See /var/log/cloudera-manager-installer/

6.start-embedded-db.log

I'm using a fresh installation of Ubuntu Desktop 14.04 LTS x64 under VMWARE Player 12 with:

1 GB RAM

2 Processors

20 GB Harddisk

 

Any ideas what the problem is?

I added more memory to the VM.

The error still exists but the installation was succesful.

Klaus,

I guess I hadn't had enough coffee yet and accidentally hit delete when I meant to hit approve. My apologies. 🙂
