Installed sandbox but can't get the welcome / HDP page working

Hi, I have installed HDP2.3.2 sandbox and can login to the linux env. Before that, I get the page where instructions ask to login to welcome/HDP page using http://<ip_address>/. When i try this using Chrome/IE versions as per the instructed versions, it comes back with "This webpage is not available". I also tried using port 8888 and 8080 along with ip_address, but still the response is same. I further tried to execute sanbox in "host-only" configuration, now the ip is changed to 127.0.0.1, but the start up process gives error of adaptor not available and still the welcome/HDP page doesn't come up.

Please guide if i am missing anything important. Thanks a lot in advance for all your valuable feedback.

@Gagan Dutt It's hard to tell from the description but are you able to ssh to the vm via root@<ipaddress>? Instead of the ip have you also tried using "http://sandbox.hortonworks.com:8080"

@Scott Shaw I can do ssh via root@<ipaddress> as well as root@127.0.0.1. I also tried using http://sandbox.hortonworks.com:8080, but the result is same "This webpage is not available".

@Neeraj Sabharwal http://127.0.0.1:8080 results in same error message .. The webpage is not available. I can run hadoop and other commands though in sandbox env. [This with adapter setting as "NAT"]

When trying to run sandbox in host-only configuration, it gives the error "The host-only adapter does not seems to be running". And same response for welcome/HDP page comes up.

@Gagan Dutt I am sure that you have rebooted the vm.

In my case, I have only 1 adapter configure and 127.0.0.1:8080 works.

telnet 127.0.0.1 8080 --> whats the output of this?

@Neeraj Sabharwal telnet with and without port (8080,8888) results in "Could not open connection to the host, on port 23(default)/Specified Port: Connect failed"
