How to Start withHadoop in Oracle Virtual box

Question

I have configured Hadoop with a Hortonworks Sandbox and mounted it with Oracle Virtual Box. Now when I am starting the virtual box machine, the Linux system for Hadoop is booting up and there is an option Alt+F5 for start. But when I press Alt+F5, it asks me for a username and password.

I haven't specified any username/password during the time of installation when the virtual box is starting the Hortonworks Sandbox is running locally on my machine. So I am confident that my Hadoop is installed successfully.

How do I proceed?

Answer 1

You can login/SSH to the hadoop with the below credentials

• hue/hadoop
• root/hadoop

I've listed out these and other handy URL's that can help you get started in my (full disclosure) blog here. Go through it if you are interested.

Answer 2

For Hortonworks Sandbox the default username and password if I remember correctly is root/hadoop. Hope this helps.
