fmc-webui bundle failure

[roboticon]

System Info

- Using fmc 1.0.0-fuse-00-61 on Linux 64-bit with JDK 1.6...

- fmc was installed from 32-bit Linux binary, no issues

- A user and group was created to run fmc

Error Info

At FMC Console

Running bin/fmc as the user created during the installation, I get an error on the console before the FMC graphic appears:

Exception in thread "Thread-22" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: org.linkedin.zookeeper.client.IZKClient service reference is null

   at com.fusesource.fmc.webui.Service$get_service(Services.scala:42)

   ...

Log Exception

using the command  "log:display-exception", I see

java.lang.NullPointerException

  at com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerRequest.(ContainerRequest.java:187)[135:com.fusesource.fmc.fmc_webui:1.0.0.-fuse-00-061]

OSGi List

Bundles with start id's 50, 53, 86, and 127 show Blueprint Failure status.  The start levels are 40, 45, 60, and 60 respectively

Observables

The FF browser shows a disabled "Client" button when browsing to http://localhost:8107/

Caveats

- The linux server does not have access to any maven repositories

Thanks in advance for any help with this issue

So the problem here is that fabric fails to start up one of it's services that's responsible for managing a fabric, the availability of that service controls whether or not FMC enables the "Create" button, as without that service you couldn't create a fabric anyway.

Can you attach the log file from data/log/karaf.log?

Also note you'll probably want to configure etc/org.ops4j.pax.url.mvn.cfg and add/set any internal maven proxy or server that you might be running, also worth probably creating etc/org.fusesource.fabric.maven.cfg and setting "remoteRepositories" to point to the same internal proxy, that way our maven proxy service can serve out artifacts to containers as you assign profiles on them.  The default value of this is:

remoteRepositories=http://repo1.maven.org/maven2,http://repo.fusesource.com/nexus/content/groups/public,http://repo.fusesource.com/nexus/content/groups/ea

Also, might be worth trying an osgi:refresh on any failed bundles to see if the bundles start up properly after the fact.

Stan,

I should probably have mentioned earlier that my system is on a private cloud (virtualized Linux servers) that is totally disconnected from the Internet (e.g. it does not have proxy access).

Well, this is embarrassing...

While *typing in the contents of the data/karaf.log (as the machine has no internet connectivity) I noticed a

java.net.UnknownHostException

This was the root of my problem.  All subsequent exceptions were eliminated by fixing my hostname table.

Thanks,
