and here are the ports which are in listening state after zeppelin is started

tcp6       0      0 :::8081                 :::*                    LISTEN     
tcp6       0      0 ::1:631                 :::*                    LISTEN     
tcp6       0      0 :::8091                 :::*                    LISTEN     
tcp6       0      0 :::9001                 :::*                    LISTEN     

and Zeppelin is running [ OK ] is the response I get when I run command bin/zeppelin-daemon.sh status

Solution 1

Check if you can reach it at 127.0.0.1:8080. This works for me, while localhost:8080 also is not reachable.

Solution 2

Also check other Zeppelin files, like interpreter.json and the notebook files. They might have saved config values that are overriding what you are setting in configuration.xsl.

I had a similar problem, mostly with the MASTER setting, but also with the port. I specified new values, but Zeppelin was ignoring them. I eventually discovered that Zeppelin had taken the value of the environment variable MASTER, and unknown to me, saved it into the interpreter.json file. You might try editing that file, or recreating your Zeppelin Interpreters.

In my case, I decided not to mess with that, just did a complete reinstalling of Zeppelin to ensure a clean slat. Then added the following lines to the zeppelin-env.sh file before starting:

export MASTER=local[*]
export ZEPPELIN_PORT=8088

That worked.
