Not able to Install ApacheRanger(Manual) on HDInsight Cluster(Kafka-Preview).

New Contributor

My usecase is to Secure Kafka-Topics residing on HDInsight-Kafka01.10.0(HDI 3.6) cluster using Apache Ranger.

https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.2/bk_command-line-installation/content/ch_ins...

This is where I started. as per the document, I installed Solr,Checked the prerequisites. I then started with the Policy manager Installation. The Installation is successfull with no errors. But am not able to login to the UI using admin creds.

http://<host_address>:6080/ - Tried modyfying the Install.props to match http/https/6080/6082
https://<host_address>:6082/

I even tried Implementing the below.But none with a positive outcome. https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.2/bk_security/content/configure_non_ambari_ra...

since HDInsight has some port enabling stuff. I installed something called Links using Yum.Where I can open a link in Linux machines.

so far,I am not able to login to admin console using the default admin/admin.

I even tried backend

update x_portal_user set password = 'ceb4f32325eda6142bd65215f4c0f371' where login_id = 'admin';

and then I am in parallel looking @ UserSync. I would like to know,If there is something I am missing over here. and Location of where to looks for the Logs when Login fails.

If someone out there,tried this approach on HDInsight. Please let me know,the challenging stuff you have gotten in to.
Please let me know,If more details are needed.Any clear documentation would be of great help.

ranger_admin_sql.log is empty. Below is the Log4j detail,I modified the debug to true.

<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/" debug="<strong>true</strong>">

<appender name="sql_appender" class="org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender">
