Could you please advice.     I believe the "Launch Cloudera Manager" icon has been replaced with a "Launch Cloudera Express" icon. I'm checking with my contacts to confirm and get the QuickStart VM download page updated with the new wording if needed.  ... View more

A few quick questions to understand your situation before providing a possible solution. Can you describe the specification on the system you installed the VM on as well as how much resources were allocated to the VM?   I would suggest checking out our community article on how to setup a Cloudera QuickStart VM which also includes some common issues which you may be running into. Specifically, the amount of resources required for the VM to run Cloudera Manager.    Here is another tip from the QuickStart VM page which may also apply here depending on what exactly you are encountering:   Cloudera Manager is installed in the VM but is turned off by default. If you would like to use Cloudera Manager, open theLaunch Cloudera Manager icon on the desktop. It is strongly recommended that before you do so, you configure the VM with a minimum of 8 GiB of RAM and 2 virtual CPU cores (by default it will use 4 GiB of RAM and 1 virtual CPU core). Cloudera Manager and all of the CDH services might not launch properly with less RAM. After launching Cloudera Manager, all of the services in CDH are started, although it might take several minutes for Cloudera Manager to start all of the services. To conserve resources and improve performance, it is recommended that you stop services you do not plan to use. Changes made to configuration files before launching Cloudera Manager are not preserved. You can start or reconfigure any installed services using the web interface that is automatically displayed when the VM starts. Warning: If Cloudera Manager is running, do not use command-line utilities to start, stop, or configure CDH components. ... View more

To be sure did you follow this specific part of the article to create the VM or did you do it manually?   Using the specific documentation and instructions provided by your hypervisor application, open the extracted file into that hypervisor application. For example, if you elected to use VirtualBox, you would have downloaded and extracted a *.ovf file from Cloudera. Use the “File -> Import Appliance” menu inside VirtualBox to open your downloaded *.ovf file, or simply double-click on the file itself and VirtualBox should handle it from there. I will also point out the following as a corrupted file could also be to blame:   IMPORTANT: As recommended on the download page, we HIGHLY recommend that you install a “Download Manager” extension to your web browser and utilize that to manage the download of the Quickstart VM as it is a VERY large file and can easily get corrupted during download due to connectivity issues. A download manager add-on will assist you in getting a clean download and save you time and spare the frustration.   ... View more
