  • 1.  Can not deploy QRADAR CE 7.3.3

    Posted Mon February 19, 2024 06:55 AM

    I have qradar ce 7.3.3 and i can not make deployments, i tried adding more ram and memory but it did not solve the issue, the wifi is not the problem either, when i try to see the qradar log errors does not show any useful information. On the log errors i could see that it said index too small or something like this but i don't have git or any kind of repository like this, can someone help me? The only message it says when i make a deployment is timed out.

    Hi Blanca

    Have you tried restart services on it?  

    systemctl stop hostcontext

    systemctl stop tomcat

    systemctl restart hostservices

    systemctl start tomcat

    systemctl start hostcontext

    Thanks

    I also wanted do add that this Qradar ce is in a virtual machine from virtual box.

    this looks really bad. The fatal error iindicated is critical . When you use systemctl status hostcontext you will find services missing.

    Feb 20 10:13:51 ::ffff:127.0.0.1 [hostcontext.hostcontext] [Thread-2600] ComponentOutput: [ERROR] [NOT:0000003000][127.0.0.1/- -] [-/- -]ErrorStream post-config-update: fatal: index file smaller than expected
    Feb 20 10:13:51 ::ffff:127.0.0.1 [hostcontext.hostcontext] [2173d164-cf01-4303-90bc-44d840ec328a/SequentialEventDispatcher] com.q1labs.configservices.util.ConfigServicesUtil: [WARN] [NOT:0000004000][127.0.0.1/- -] [-/- -]Saving history for directory /opt/qradar/conf didn't run cleanly

    so the best thing to do is use sufficient ressources and reinstall CE in ESX from the beginning. Double check setup log log for everything is ok. Dont forget thepatch highlighted in instructions. Virtual box may be an alternative but in your case I doubt it would help.
