HDP 2.5 Sandbox not starting

Hi,

Today I downloaded the Sandbox from http://hortonworks.com/downloads/#sandbox When I start it though it seems like some but not all components are launched. First the Virtualbox screen is stuck in this mode:

When you hit a button I get more info:

7852-screen-shot-2016-09-21-at-94624-pm.png

The time counter just runs forever. By this time the Ambari login screen is up and the YARN app WebUI on 8088 as well, but that is it. It is stuck on start up. What is going on?

UPDATE

Well, I turned to the Docker version instead. That one is working!

If you see "Starting SandboxContainer.." then you're already up and running. Just navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8080/ on your host machine and the Ambari login screen should pop up.

The default admin login is raj_ops/raj_ops

I am able to start the Sandbox on Windows 10 and Oracle VirtualBox.

Initially I also faced same problem, Sanbox was not starting even after setting RAM to 12GB. (waited for more than 1 hour)

So I removed the sandbox image from VirtualBox, closed the virtualbox application, used Ccleaner to clean temp files, and restarted windows .

After restart I reloaded the sandbox image in VirtualBox and set the RAM to 11111 (close to 11GB).

and then closed VirtualBox application, used Ccleaner to clean temp files, and restarted windows again.

after that sandbox did work, It did took some time to start up.

After that I also tried running it with 10GB RAM but did not worked.

Still wonder why it did not worked with 12GB RAM, but worked later with close to 11GB,

My suspect is something to do with temp files , May be I am wrong. I am not sure.

But give it a try and see if that works for you.

I have resolved this issue by switch off name node safe mode to off(leave).

Open SSH using root login and run below command.

> sudo -u hdfs hdfs dfsadmin -safemode leave

you will get "Safe mode is OFF" message. Now try to start services.
