Hortonworks Repositories can't be accessed

[#1]

Hello all,

I tried to set up Ambari  for a research project, however I get  "ERROR 403:  FORBIDDEN" (Access denied ) when trying to download the repositories from  Hortonworks & I don't know what I can do know or how to install Ambari and all its HDP services manually. Is anyone else here encountering this problem or does anyone have a solution for it?

I tried it with multiple versions already.

Thanks in advance!

Hello @AI99 ,

I would refer you to the announcement I linked to earlier in this very thread, Transition to private repositories for CDH, HDP and HDF because it has a section labeled Installing/upgrading Ambari & HDP via Cloudera's private repository that in turn has links to extensive documentation on how to download and install Ambari and HDP. It also features links to all the details required to update your environment and how to obtain the credentials necessary to access Cloudera's private repositories, which now contain all new and existing releases.

The credentials to access this private repository are not generally the same ones to access Cloudera's website or the Cloudera community. Instead, people with a valid Cloudera subscription can generate repository credentials from a license key, and there is a link in the same announcement I mentioned above which explains how to initiate the process for obtaining that license key.
