Cloudera Manager Failed to Install

This has been asked before, and I tried the suggested solutions, they
don't work.
I have a Ubuntu 12.04 host (used as server), and a Ubuntu 12.04 VM on
virtualbox as the cluster node .
Server IP is 143.215.206.52, client is 143.215.206.31

When I try to install cloudera manager using the wizard, this is the
error I get.

*The log file on the agent is attached, and this is the relevant part
of the error (I believe).*

Hi,

Bumping this post since I have the same problem and haven't seen any
solutions posted for the problem. Additional information that is related to
my setup:

I am running a cluster setup with the Manager running on one of the
hosts in the cluster. When Cloudera Manager installs the agent on the hosts
and attempts to heartbeat, I get the same error message and log messages
mentioned by Pranesh for all hosts in the cluster.

When I *netstat -p | grep 7182* on the host running the Manager, I
sometimes see a connection with a connection state of *ESTABLISHED* on
port 7182 between the host running Manager and one of the cluster hosts.
Running *netstat -p | grep 7182 *on the hosts not running the manager
shows a long list of connections to the host running Manager on port 7182
with connection state *TIME_WAIT*, and occasionally one with a
connection state of *ESTABLISHED*.

I'm inclined to believe that the connection is being made with port
7182, but something is going on in the SCM server or agent code that is
causing the "NoneType" error mentioned by Pranesh and ultimately causing
the heartbeats to fail. I have seen a few posts regarding the error, but
none with resolutions that have worked for me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Uttam
