@Tom Burke

Are you really checking what kind of command aere you executing in curl and what does every curl argument means?

Before attaching the "hosts4.json" if you would have just checked the content of this file then you would know that the credentials which you are entering in curl command are Wrong ambari admin credential.

# cat hosts4.json 
{
  "status": 403,
  "message": "Unable to sign in. Invalid username/password combination."
}

.

As i do not know your ambari admin credentials hence i just gave you a dummy curl command and expected that you will change the values according to your cluster.

1. Please make sure that the permission on these files are correct as following:

# ls -lart /root/.ssh/
total 20
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  409 Jul 21  2018 id_rsa.pub
-rw-------. 1 root root 1679 Jul 21  2018 id_rsa

.

2. Also please make sure that the id_rsa files are generated on the host after fixing the hostname. (if the host was having multiple hostname earlier then please regenerate the keys again)

Also make sure to copy this public key to the mentioned hosts (and all cluster hosts)

# ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@ambari.example.com

.

3. Also for a quick check if the passwordless SSH is setup already then you should be able to do SSH without entering password nexttime.

# ssh root@ambari.example.com

Hi Jay

I was missing the ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@ambari.example.com

I did the above and tested OK passwd-less root login to the ambari box.

Returned Failed but now with... ( thanks again!)

@Tom Burke

This time i do not see it is failing with the the previous error.

But it is strange to see that you are planning to use too old Ambari 2.2.1.0 as i see your output as following:

Get:1 http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/ambari/ubuntu14/2.x/updates/2.2.1.0 Ambari InRelease [3,187 B]

.

Is there any specific reason for choosing so old Ambari version?

Latest ambari release is 2.7.3

Hi Jay - No particular reason. I inherited the cluster install that was made from a recent download l( like 3 weeks ago from your site ) so I assumed pretty new.

Ambari machine still does not show in Hosts?

Could our problem be this old version?

@Tom Burke

Can you also please check on the agent host to know why it is referring to Old ambari version 2.2.1.0?

May be on the problematic host you can try running this command to find out which version is it using?

# dpkg --list | grep ambari

ambari-server 2.7.3.0-139 amd64 Ambari Server

@Tom Burke

i meant to say on the host where the Agent registration is failing can you check from where Ambari 2.2.1.0 binaries are coming because we saw in your output as :

http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/ambari/ubuntu14/2.x/updates/2.2.1.0 Ambari 

.

Or can you please share the "ambari-agent.log" from the host where the agent setup is failing?

"/var/log/ambari-agent/ambari-agent.log"

The host I cannot join to cluster is the Ambari server itself , I thought this was needed fro my reading of docs for the cluster in order to run the enable kerberos wizard. But seems not needed from your previous comment. I can run the command regardless , here are returns form one member compute1

root@compute1:~# dpkg --list | grep ambari
