Hi Everyone, I'm having troubles trying to install Ambari on an EC2 Amazon instance. The version of the OS is the following:
NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server" VERSION="7.2 (Maipo)" ID="rhel" ID_LIKE="fedora" VERSION_ID="7.2" PRETTY_NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 7.2 (Maipo)" First I've updated the distro using the following command: sudo yum update After that I've added the repository in this way: sudo wget -nv http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/ambari/centos7/2.x/updates/2.1.2.1/ambari.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ambari.repo Finally I've run sudo yum install ambari-server Yum tries to install the following Ambari release: ambari-server | x86_64 | 2.1.2.1-418 | Updates-ambari-2.1.2.1 I'm getting the following error: Downloading packages: ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64.rpm | 385 MB 00:00:08 Running transaction check Running transaction test Transaction test succeeded Running transaction Installing : ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64 1/1 Error unpacking rpm package ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64 error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: mkdir Verifying : ambari-server-2.1.2.1-418.x86_64 1/1 Failed: ambari-server.x86_64 0:2.1.2.1-418 Complete! I've tried to install the package cpio and also a rpm built directly from the sources but I'm getting the same error. Please note that both the procedures have been completed successfully on a CentOS 6.x box. Does anybody have some idea about the resolution of this error? Many thanks in advance! Regards, Roberto Bentivoglio
