Sandbox with HDP 2.4 on Azure - Connection refused

avatar
New Contributor

I have created Hortonworks Sandbox with HDP 2.4 on Azure, as in THIS tutorial.

After navigating to http://ip_address:8888/, welcome screen is shown, inviting me to try THIS tutorial, using http://ip_address:8080/ url.

But trying http://ip_address:8080/ results in connection refused error.

Why is that? Did I miss some configuration in Azure? Am I supposed to use virtual machine on my machine instead of Azure, if all I want to do is to complete some tutorials and create small university project?

Hi @Przemysław Rząd, It looks like Ambari is not running. Can you try to login into your instance and run /root/start_ambari.sh script. Or you can try to restart your instance, Ambari is supposed to start on instance startup.

did you use "ip_address" or the actual ip address?

Yes, the Ambari is not running.

It couldn't be started because there was not enough memory on the system (virtual machine I chose was too weak).

Thanks for your quick response.

No problems. Yes, many components are packed in the Sandbox and they are all hungry for memory 🙂 On Azure you need at least 7G to run the Sandbox comfortably. It may also run on 3.5G but it will be tight. Okay, enjoy the tutorials and let us know if you face any other issues.
