Practitioner - Partnerworks HDP Developer | Cannot log in to Sandbox

[#1]

Hi All,

I enrolled in the HortonWorks University Practitioner - Partnerworks HDP Developer course for Hive and Pig.

I have downloaded the HDP2.3-Pig-Hive-Rev6.zip file for practice.

I followed all the instructions in the course, but am unable to log in to the sandbox.

Can someone please help me out??

Regards,

Anirban.

Hi @Anirban Das Deb

I don't think I have access to the same course, but, all of the Sandbox verisons I have used have a different port for SSH access. Try using port 2222 instead and see if that works: ssh root@127.0.0.1 -p 2222

As always, if you find this post useful, please accept the answer.

Thanks for you response! I had already tried that, to no avail.

I had to execute the recreate_sandbox.sh[in ~/.sys/ folder] script to be able to log into the sandbox.

Additionally, this VM is not the one that is available for free download.. so this is a bit different.

apologies for tagging you here. I saw your response on another thread regarding the HDP2.3-Pig-Hive-Rev6.zip sandbox. You had asked to run the ~/.sys/recreate_sandbox.sh script, which worked.

However, in that same course, it is instructed to launch gedit to write a pig script and save it in devph/labs/Lab6.2 folder.

The gedit that is there on the VM cannot access that sandbox folder location. Also, since the sandbox does not have any UI, so there was no point in installing gedit.

For the time being, I have installed vim inside the sandbox to write scripts. Can you please suggest how to run gedit in the sandbox?

Regards,

Anirban.

@Anirban Das Deb, yep, the notes in https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/65370/hdp23-pig-hive-rev6-vm-for-self-paced-learning.htm... probably helped you get tiny psuedo cluster running on Docker rebuilt again. As for your specific problem of running gedit to access and save files on that Docker image, the lab guide walks you through how to get going. I documented the essential steps in https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/66151/devph-folder-in-self-paced-learning-vm.html (scroll down towards the bottom as my answer isn't marked as "Best"). That said, if this helps you out, maybe you can "Accept" it on this one. 😉

welp!

That shows what happens when you are too "intelligent" to read through the basic stuff because you think you already know it. 😞

Thank you again @Lester Martin!! 😄
