@Neeraj Sabharwal Those log files were like best friends to me!. I found that the log for resourcemanager was showing zookeeper related issues. When I went to the dashboard, I saw that the Zookeeper service was not up. I run the Zookeeper service and then my Jobs started running fine!!!!! . I had not started the Zookeeper service deliberately as I thought it is not required for running a simple MapReduce Job. Maybe I was wrong. Do you have any technical explanation for this Neeraj. Thanks again! ... View more

@Neeraj Sabharwal I am running out of option. Can you suggest something?. I now see that the Resourcemanager service is running fine. It is green in colour, but when I run the jobs, it comes back with the same info about Resourcemanager being tried.. I have been waiting since last 10 minutes, but I am still seeing the same message being displayed "INFO ipc.Client: Retrying connect to server: mycomputer.mydomain.com/172.26.180.6:8050." ...

I will try for RM HA, but as another alternative, Is it a good idea trying to move ResourceManager to another node?. Because I have most of the services installed and running on the master node. Maybe the master node is too much loaded in terms of memory utilization?. From the graph on the dashboard, the memory utilization of master node is around 50% only. ... View more

The execution console has been giving this warning since the last 4 minutes, with no sign of any failure or successful execution of job. But, on thing I observed is that the "ResourceManager Service" is in red :(. Just to add to it, I do not see any log files under /hadoop/yarn/og folder. It is empty. Where should I look for logs if I have to find out what is going wrong? ... View more

Thanks Benjamin. I will accept your answer here, as you are the first to provide me with some guideline on going to ambari configuration section and try out the command. I had to do some additional steps, which you can see in my posted answer. ... View more

I fixed all this issue. This is what I have done. Hope this helps users who are stuck in similar situation. The error "org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.HiveMetaException: Failed to get schema version" was fixed by updating the password of the hive user from the Ambari configuration file. It seems I had typed incorrect password in the configuration section. After that I started getting schema reading errors. So I went to mysql console and dropped the hive database and recreated the database and reassigned the hive users to the database. I also executed the command "$HIVE_HOME/bin/schematool -initSchema -dbType mysql" as suggested by Neeraj. After that it all worked perfectly fine!. Special thanks to Neeraj Sabharwal, who have been helping me with all the errors. Thanks Neeraj once again. ... View more

Yes I am using HDP. The log also showed some permission issue, so I went into the configuration section and I updated the password of hive user. After I did this, I do not see the schema version exception anymore!!. Now, when I start the Hive Metastore service, I see the two errors (see then end of this comment). I also tried to create new database, but the option 'New MySQL Database" is not clickable. It is disabled. Errors are: SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings. org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.HiveMetaException:Schema initialization FAILED! ... View more

Hi, I am unable to find where is hive installed. When I do echo $HIVE_HOME, it comes out blank. I need the path of the hive so that I can edit "hive-site.xml". I do not know where I can find "hive-site.xml". When I executed the find command for "hive-site.xml" I get a huge list. (I cannot paste the list here in the comment, because it exceeds the character limit). I am confused now. I do not which hive-site.xml should I edit? ... View more
