hbase connection refused

Question

I am new to HBase and Hadoop. I have completely setup HBase and started perfectly. Now when I tried to connect from p1 to HBase (where HBase setup is on p2) using a Java client, then it is throwing a strange exception.

org.apache.hadoop.hbase.ZooKeeperConnectionException: HBase is able to connect to ZooKeeper but the connection closes immediately. This could be a sign that the server has too many connections (30 is the default). Consider inspecting your ZK server logs for that error and then make sure you are reusing HBaseConfiguration as often as you can. See HTable's javadoc for more information.

While I generally like more information, rather than less, I wonder if you could have printed slightly less of this error statement. It repeats a lot and ends up looking more like a WALLOFTEXT than anything else. Perhaps it's not important. — john_science, Apr 17 '12 at 22:16
thanks for reply.Now i have posted complete output please check — khan, Apr 18 '12 at 08:04

The accepted answer here might work, but only as a side effect.

The problem is that HBase is opening a port listening on localhost (i.e., on loopback) rather than on the external facing interface. Removing the localhost entry in /etc/hosts forces HBase to bind to the external interface -- but only because it can't find localhost. This is likely to become a problem when some daemon wants to legitimately listen on or connect to localhost (via lo) alone.

You can test that you have this problem by using telnet to connect to port 60000 via localhost or the IP assigned to the machine. It's likely you'll be able to connect via localhost (because that's where HBase is bound) and not to the IP.

Better to use your machine name in your HBase conf.

When to configure a cluster to set property "hbase.master" in hbase-site.xml with your hostname or IP, example: `code hbase.master 192.168.1.111:16000 ` — joaolsouzajr, May 10 '17 at 21:56

I have found the solution.

By just removing localhost entry from my /etc/hosts. Now my localhost entry is like 192.169.19.50 [which is my hbase IP] = localhost instead of 127.0.0.1 localhost.

khan - i have this error when i am running hbase, hadoop, nutch on the same server in pseudo mode. Do I need to edit my /etc/hosts file? – sunskin Oct 10 '13 at 14:42

A bit doubtful solution. You should possibly better modify hbase.zookeeper.quorum property either on client or server side. – user1455836 Aug 07 '14 at 14:23
@user1455836's suggestion, and flushing the DNS cache and restarting (pure superstition?), worked for me. For my Mac, I added an entry for `hbase.zookeeper.quorum` to `/usr/local/Cellar/hbase/1.0.1/libexec/conf/hbase-site.xml` with a value of `.local`. Zookeeper is now alive again with all of its blessings, glory and user friendliness. – Eric Walker Jul 31 '15 at 22:36

Assuming that you have instantiated Configuration for your HBase, set hbase master, the zookeeper quorum and the znode parent. Kinda like this-

import org.apache.hadoop.hbase.HBaseConfiguration;

public class CLASS_NAME{
    Configuration configuration = new HBaseConfiguration.Create();
    configuration.set(hbase master, "");
    configuration.set(zookeeper quorum, "");
    configuration.set(znode parent, "");  
}

hbase connection refused
