HDP 2.5 Sandbox is not loading Hadoop

Explorer

I am trying to run Sandbox 2.5 in Oracle Virtual Box, once the Virtual Machine is started, it boots the OS and then it does not load environment and the host system also hangs. I have tried loading localhost in URL as well but that also doesn't seem to connect.

How much memory do you have on your machine? How much did you allocate to the VM?

Explorer

Nearly 100gb and I allocated 8gb for the VM

You have to allocate more memory for sandbox. In my case, I allocated 18GB.

You followed Deployment & Install Guide instructions, right?
Could you share some screen shots to help determine how far the deployment got?

Is there a particular reason you went for HDP 2.5? The 2.6.4 sandbox is out now and features more recent versions of underlying technologies that are more mature.

@glupuI used 2.5 as it was recommended in my course

Tried 2.6 sandbox also, same issue

Can you ensure that hardware virtualization support is turned on in the BIOS settings of your host machine?

Save the BIOS settings and boot up the machine normally and as you have plenty of memory shoot it up to 10GB

Is virtualisation enabled in your host BIOS?
