Zookeeper connection error

Question

We have a standalone zookeeper setup on a dev machine  It works fine for every other dev machine except this one testdev machine   We get this error over and over again when trying to connect to zookeeper through testdev   2012-11-09 14 06 53 909 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 947  - Socket connection established to zk01 dev bunchball net 192 168 8 58 2181  initiating session 2012-11-09 14 06 53 911 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 1183  - Unable to read additional data from server sessionid 0x0  likely server has closed socket  closing socket connection and attempting reconnect 2012-11-09 14 06 55 366 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 1058  - Opening socket connection to server zk01 dev bunchball net 192 168 8 58 2181 2012-11-09 14 06 55 368 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 947  - Socket connection established to zk01 dev bunchball net 192 168 8 58 2181  initiating session 2012-11-09 14 06 55 368 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 1183  - Unable to read additional data from server sessionid 0x0  likely server has closed socket  closing socket connection and attempting reconnect 2012-11-09 14 06 57 271 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 1058  - Opening socket connection to server zk01 dev bunchball net 192 168 8 58 2181 2012-11-09 14 06 57 274 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 947  - Socket connection established to zk01 dev bunchball net 192 168 8 58 2181  initiating session 2012-11-09 14 06 57 275 - INFO   main-SendThread zk01 dev bunchball net 2181  ClientCnxn SendThread 1183  - Unable to read additional data from server sessionid 0x0  likely server has closed socket  closing socket connection and attempting reconnect   We tried restarting the test dev machine  and also restart zookeeper host but nothing worked  We are totally confused why it works perfectly fine with other machines except this one  What might be the cause of this

Make sure all required services are running

Step 1 : Check if hbase-master is running

sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-master status

if not, then start it sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-master start

Step 2 : Check if hbase-regionserver is running

sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-regionserver status

if not, then start it sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-regionserver start

Step 3 : Check if zookeeper-server is running

sudo /etc/init.d/zookeeper-server status

if not, then start it sudo /etc/init.d/zookeeper-server start

or simply run these 3 commands in a row.

sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-master restart
sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-regionserver restart
sudo /etc/init.d/zookeeper-server restart

after that don't forget to check the status

sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-master status
sudo /etc/init.d/hbase-regionserver status
sudo /etc/init.d/zookeeper-server status

You might find that zookeeper is still not running: then you can run the zookeeper

sudo /usr/lib/zookeeper/bin/zkServer.sh stop
sudo /usr/lib/zookeeper/bin/zkServer.sh start

after that again check the status and make sure its running

sudo /etc/init.d/zookeeper-server status

This should work.

I encountered same problem  too  In my case the problem is about iptables rules   To communicate with zookeeper node  2181 port must be accept incoming request  also for internal communication between zookeeper nodes 2888 3888 ports must be open for incoming request   iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp -s 10 0 0 0 24 --dport 2181 -j DNAT --to-destination serverIp 2181 iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p udp -s 10 0 0 0 24 --dport 2181 -j DNAT --to-destination serverIp 2181  iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp -s 10 0 0 0 24 --dport 2888 -j DNAT --to-destination serverIp 2888 iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p udp -s 10 0 0 0 24 --dport 2888 -j DNAT --to-destination serverIp 2888  iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp -s 10 0 0 0 24 --dport 3888 -j DNAT --to-destination serverIp 3888 iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p udp -s 10 0 0 0 24 --dport 3888 -j DNAT --to-destination serverIp 3888  sudo service iptables save

I faced the same issue and found it was due to zookeeper cluster nodes needs ports opened to communicate with each other   server 1 xx xx xx xx 2888 3888  server 2 xx xx xx xx 2888 3888  server 3 xx xx xx xx 2888 3888   once i allowed these ports through aws security group and restarted  All worked fine for me

In my case  I config zoo cfg like this   server 1 host-1 2888 3888 server 2 host-2 2888 3888 server 3 host-3 2888 3888   But  in host-1  I config host-1 resolve to 127 0 0 1 in  etc hosts   127 0 0 1   localhost host-1   which may results other hosts can t communicate with it  Resolve host-1 to its real ip solved this problem   Hope this can help

I also ran into this problem last week and have managed to fix this now  I got the idea to resolve this one from the response shared by  gukoff   My requirement and situation was slightly different from the ones shared so far but the issue was fundamentally the same so I thought of sharing it on this thread    I was actually trying to query zookeeper quorum  after every 30 seconds  for some information from my application and was using the Curator Framework for this purpose  the methods available in LeaderLatch class   So  essentially I was starting up a CuratorFramework client and supplying this to LeaderLatch object   Only after I ran into the error mentioned in this thread - I realised that I did not close the zookeeper client connection s  established in my applications  The maxClientCnxns property had the value of 60 and as soon as the number of connections  all of them were stale connections  touched 60  my application started complaining with this error    I found out about the number of open connections by     Checking the zookeeper logs  where there were warning messages stating  Too many connections from  IP address of the host   Running the following netstat command from the same host mentioned in the above logs where my application was running       netstat -no   grep  2181   wc -l   Note  The 2181 port is the default for zookeeper supplied as a parameter in grep to match the zookeeper connections   To fix this  I cleared up all of those stale connections manually and then added the code for closing the zookeeper client connections gracefully in my application   I hope this helps

I had this problem too  and it turned out that I was telling zookeeper to connect to the wrong port  Have you verified that zookeeper is actually running on port 2181 on the dev machine

Had the same error during setup on a 2 node cluster  I discovered I had mixed up the contents of the myid file versus the server id HOST IP port entry   Essentially  if you have two servers  SERVER1 and SERVER2  for which you have created  myid  files in dataDir for zookeeper as below   SERVER1  myid  1  SERVER2  myid  2   Ensure the entry in your zoo cfg file corresponds for each of these i e server 1 should use SERVER1 hostname and server 2 should use SERVER2 hostname followed by the port as below  SERVER1  zoo cfg       other config omitted  server 1 SERVER1 2888 3888 server 2 SERVER2 2888 3888  SERVER2  zoo cfg       other config omitted  server 1 SERVER1 2888 3888 server 2 SERVER2 2888 3888   Just to make sure  I also deleted the version-  folder in the dataDir then restarted Zookeeper to get it working

This is a common issue if the Zookeeper server is not running or no longer running  i e  it crashed after you started it      So first  check that you have the Zookeeper server running   A simple way to check is grep the running processes     ps -ef   grep zookeeper    run this a couple of times to see if the same process ID is still there    its possible it keep restarting with a new process ID   Alternatively you can use  systemctl status zookeeper  if your Linux distro support systemd   You should see the process running as a java process     ps -ef   grep zookeeper root       492     0  0 00 01 pts 1    00 00 00 java -Dzookeeper log dir   -Dzookeeper root logger INFO CONSOLE -cp  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    build classes  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    build lib   jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib slf4j-log4j12-1 7 5 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib slf4j-api-1 7 5 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib servlet-api-2 5-20081211 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib netty-3 7 0 Final jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib log4j-1 2 16 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib jline-2 11 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib jetty-util-6 1 26 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib jetty-6 1 26 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib javacc jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib jackson-mapper-asl-1 9 11 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib jackson-core-asl-1 9 11 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    lib commons-cli-1 2 jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    src java lib   jar  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    conf  -Xmx1000m -Xmx1000m -Dcom sun management jmxremote -Dcom sun management jmxremote local only false org apache zookeeper server quorum QuorumPeerMain  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha bin    conf zoo cfg   If its not there  then there s likely something in the zookeeper log file indicating the issue     To find the zookeeper log file  you should first figure out where its configured for logging   In my case I have zookeeper installed under my root directory  not suggesting you install it there     root centos6 zookeeper conf   pwd  root zookeeper-3 5 0-alpha conf   And you can find the log setting in this file    root centos6 zookeeper conf   grep  zookeeper log  log4j properties  zookeeper log dir  var log zookeeper log file zookeeper log zookeeper log threshold INFO zookeeper log maxfilesize 256MB zookeeper log maxbackupindex 20   So Zookeeper is configured to log under  var log   Then there s usually a zookeeper log and or zookeeper out file which should indicate your startup error

I was having the same error when I was trying to connect my broker with my Zookeeper ensemble using A records to point to Zookeeper IPs  The problem was in my zookeepers  My zookeepers were not able to bind to port 2181 because I was pointing my A records to public IP  This was preventing the zookeeper ensemble to choose a leader and communicate with each other  Pointing A records to private IP enabled the zookeeper ensemble to choose a leader and the cluster became active  After this when I tried to  connect one of my brokers to the ensemble  it connected successfully

This can happen if there are too many open connections   Try increasing the maxClientCnxns setting   From documentation      maxClientCnxns    No Java system property       Limits the number of concurrent connections  at the socket level  that a single client  identified by IP address  may make to a single member of the ZooKeeper ensemble  This is used to prevent certain classes of DoS attacks  including file descriptor exhaustion  Setting this to 0 or omitting it entirely removes the limit on concurrent connections    You can edit settings in the config file  Most likely it can be found at  etc zookeeper conf zoo cfg    In modern ZooKeeper versions default value is 60  You can increase it by adding the maxClientCnxns 4096 line to the end of the config file

I have just solved the problem  I am using centos 7  And the trouble-maker is firewall Using  systemctl stop firewalld  to shut it all down in each server can simply solve the problem Or you can use command like   firewall-cmd --zone public --add-port 2181 udp --add-port 2181 tcp --permanent  to configure all three ports  include 2181 2888 3888 in each server And then  firewall-cmd --reload   Finally use   zkServer sh restart   to restart your servers and problem solved

This can happen despite the ZooKeeper servers being up and running and the socket open and accepting connections  if one or more of the ZooKeeper disks are out of space  This can easily happen if the old ZK snapshot and log files are never cleaned up      The ZooKeeper server creates snapshot and log files  but never deletes them  The retention policy of the data and log files is implemented outside of the ZooKeeper server  The server itself only needs the latest complete fuzzy snapshot  all log files following it  and the last log file preceding it  The latter requirement is necessary to include updates which happened after this snapshot was started but went into the existing log file at that time  This is possible because snapshotting and rolling over of logs proceed somewhat independently in ZooKeeper  See the maintenance section in this document for more details on setting a retention policy and maintenance of ZooKeeper storage    There is a maintenance job that can be run to clean up old snapshot and log files  See https   zookeeper apache org doc r3 4 12 zookeeperAdmin html sc maintenance

Check the zookeeper logs   var log zookeeper   It looks like a connection is established  which should mean there is a record of it   I had the same situation and it was because a process opened connections and failed to close them  This eventually exceeded the per-host connection limit and my logs were overflowing with  2016-08-03 15 21 13 201  myid   - WARN   NIOServerCxn Factory 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2181 NIOServerCnxnFactory 188  - Too many connections from  172 31 38 64 - max is 50   Assuming zookeeper is on the usual port  you could do a check for that with   lsof -i -P   grep 2181
