Not able to install CDH earlier version (5.1.0) manually

[#1]

Hi,

I am trying to install CDH5.1.0 manually in one of our new node,  as other nodes are working with 5.1.0 in our cluster.

I followed steps mentioned in below link to install 5.1.0-

The cloudera.list file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ has below contents- 

# Packages for Cloudera's Distribution for Hadoop, Version 5, on Ubuntu 12.04 amd64       
deb [arch=amd64] http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh5/ubuntu/precise/amd64/cdh precise-cdh5.1.0 contrib
deb-src http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh5/ubuntu/precise/amd64/cdh precise-cdh5.1.0 contrib

I executed below two commands-

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install hadoop-yarn-resourcemanager

 It created hadoop and hadoop-yarn direcories in /usr/lib/ with following contents-

/usr/lib$ ls hadoop/
bin                                       hadoop-annotations.jar             hadoop-common-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar        hadoop-nfs-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar  libexec
etc                                       hadoop-auth-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar  hadoop-common-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563-tests.jar  hadoop-nfs.jar                    sbin
hadoop-annotations-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar  hadoop-auth.jar                    hadoop-common.jar                          lib

/usr/lib$ ls hadoop-yarn/
bin hadoop-yarn-server-applicationhistoryservice.jar
etc hadoop-yarn-server-common-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar
hadoop-yarn-api-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar hadoop-yarn-server-common.jar
hadoop-yarn-api.jar hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar
hadoop-yarn-applications-distributedshell-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager.jar
hadoop-yarn-applications-distributedshell.jar hadoop-yarn-server-resourcemanager-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar
hadoop-yarn-applications-unmanaged-am-launcher-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar hadoop-yarn-server-resourcemanager.jar
hadoop-yarn-applications-unmanaged-am-launcher.jar hadoop-yarn-server-tests-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar
hadoop-yarn-client-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar hadoop-yarn-server-tests.jar
hadoop-yarn-client.jar hadoop-yarn-server-web-proxy-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar
hadoop-yarn-common-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar hadoop-yarn-server-web-proxy.jar
hadoop-yarn-common.jar lib
hadoop-yarn-server-applicationhistoryservice-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar sbin

I can see that instead of downloading hadoop-*-2.3.0-cdh5.1.0.jar files it has downloaded hadoop-*-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar files.

Please help me in understanding why is it downloading hadoop-*-2.4.0.2.1.3.0-563.jar files. What steps should I follow to download hadoop-2.3-cdh5.1.0 jar files.

Please help me in resolving this issue.

Thanks,

This problem is solved. 

After deleting few config files, few old files in sources.list.d directory and few cache files, it got installed properly.

Thanks
