bind_addr cannot be empty - SAS Viya single machine deployment

[arkam]

While doing single machine deployment I am facing the error below

In Consul log I can see "==> bind_addr cannot be empty". I confirmed and I have added "consul_bind_adapter = eth0 in inventory.ini file.

@arkam ,

I would like to review the output from these two commands:

ifconfig
grep CONSUL_BIND_EXTERNAL /etc/sysconfig/sas/sas-viya-consul-default

grep CONSUL_BIND_EXTERNAL /etc/sysconfig/sas/sas-viya-consul-default

export CONSUL_BIND_EXTERNAL='eth0'

[alexal]

@arkam ,

I'm curious why did you specify "eth0" if that network interface isn't configured on your server?

[arkam]

Ah apologies. I used another server before and created installation guide based on that and it had eth0.
One question, p3p1 is the only one which is currently up. I can specify that in inventory file and restart the install or I need to clean up and start fresh?

[alexal · Accepted solution]

@arkam ,

You do not need to redeploy the software. Just update CONSUL_BIND_EXTERNAL in /etc/sysconfig/sas/sas-viya-consul-default file, but also do not forget to update consul_bind_adapter property in the inventory.ini file. If you don't that and run the playbook again, for example, to install fixes, that property will be overwritten.
