Installation Guide

http://kylin.apache.org/docs16/install/index.html

Install Kylin on a beefy node (1 to start) that has Hadoop client and all the configuration files.

Start it and follow their guide to using the UI

Always watch for permissions.

See instructions from Kylin for HDP here:

Take a look at the response/instructions here:

https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/1293/how-to-make-kylin-work-with-hdp-23.html

It references HDP 2.3, but still applies for HDP 2.5. It contains links to the "installation guide" and "quick-start" instructions. It will also give you an idea of some of the "undocumented" changes that may need to be made.

note: You will probably not need to download the Binary for HBase 1.1 since it should already be included in the newer versions of Kylin.

Folks,

Any help would be appreciated.

I am trying to start the kylin service / load sample cube but got stuck with the below error.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Failed to find metadata store by url: kylin_metadata@hbase

1. I want to deploy in a distributed mode / multiple instance . i went through the official documentation but didn't find much help there . if anyone has suggestion on this that would be welcomed.

2. Version

hadoop : 2.7.3.2.6.2.25-1

hive: 2.6.2.25-1

hbase : 1.1.2.2.6.2.25-1

java L: 1.8

You need to run these commands with a user that has access/permissions to hadoop, make sure you run the check-env.sh to resolve any access and environment issues. Then the sample command should work just fine.
