Unable to initiate Hortonworks Sandbox session

[#1]

Hello,

I am having some difficulty initiating the Hortonworks Sandbox session. The localhost is 127.0.0.1 and I am able to ping to it.

However, http://127.0.0.1:1080 was not working.

From HDP 2.6.5 Settings > Network > Port Forwarding I tried replacing the Host IP with 192.168.56.1 (IPv4 Address from Ethernet adapter VirtualBox Host-Only Network) 

So I now have the following:

However, I am still getting an error when I go to http://192.168.56.1:1080

Can you please assist with this? Thanks a lot.

I have just downloaded a Virtual box sandbox image and imported it into the VirtualBox successfully. In my configuration, I  enabled only one network card Bridge Adapter so it picks the IP from my LAN of 192.168.0.x

 

After uncompressing the Docker image, the initial screen shows it picked my local LAN IP which I used to access the browser CLI as shown below.  Make sure you update your  windows hosts file in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc 

Using the above  URL  change the initial  root and Ambari passwords see steps

I completed the below steps changing the initial root password Hadoop and then reset the Ambai user password. Once that is successful is starts the Ambari server

Using the Local IP given to the VirtualBox from my LAN,I could access Ambari with the new password I reset above and restarted all serive though some were running.

Can you confirm you followed those steps and still failed??

Happy hadooping

Hi @Shelton  , Thank you very much for your reply and for the details. Sorry for the delay in getting back from my end. I was moving out-of-state and hence the delay. I performed the following steps:

1) I selected "Bridged Adapter" in the drop-down.

2) I updated the windows "hosts" file to include "192.168.1.7" and restarted my system.

3) However, when I go to 192.168.1.7:4200, I am still getting an error.

Can you please let me know where I am going wrong? Thanks a lot for your help.

Regards,
Sri

Can you confirm you have only one network card enabled?

Please share the output of the below command from the web-shell CLI

$ ifconfig

Is there an entry in your local host's file?
