Unable to connect to remote hbase from java program

Question

Hi I am trying to connect to hbase in a remote machine from my java program. But I am getting connection refused error. On looking at the error I think it is trying to connect to my localhost instead of the remote machine.

My configuration is like-

 HBaseConfiguration conf = new HBaseConfiguration();
    conf.set("hbase.master", "10.219.47.22:60010");
    conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.quorum.", "10.219.47.22:60010");
    conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort", "2181");

I am getting the following error

13/11/15 17:35:08 WARN zookeeper.ClientCnxn: Session 0x0 for server null, unexpected error, closing socket connection and attempting reconnect
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: no further information

Also on running lsof on the remote machine to check if my port 2181 is open. I got the following result-

java      18854         root  266u  IPv6 6199707      0t0  TCP 127.0.0.1:47000->127.0.0.1:2181 (CLOSE_WAIT)

Answer 1

Your zookeeper quorum ip adderess 10.219.47.22:60010 also specifies a port (60010) remove that Also you have an unnecessary . after quorum

conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.quorum", "10.219.47.22"); 
conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort", "2181");

Answer 2

The 60010 port is just for web ui not for connection. Check if this code snippet can help you:

Configuration hbaseConfiguration = HBaseConfiguration.create();
hbaseConfiguration.addResource(new Path("hbase-site.xml");

and in hbase-site.xml file add properties like ones in your conf folder of hbase installation folder on your master node.
