RM Server extensions problem on Azure. Installing extensions on Job Agent?
Hi all,
So I spun up a small VM on Azure with RM Server 8.2 (BYOL). And I copied all the extensions I needed from my local RM Studio 8.2 installtions into /opt/rmserver/plugins. Then I restarted the VM to finish installing those extensions as per documentation and loaded a process. I made all the necessary path changes to the retrive and store operators and any other operators that were grabbing a file or data from my local machine. However process execution fails because it still cannot see those extensions and operators such as Free Memory, and t-SNE and it throws the "Dummy Operator" error. Am I missing something? Also how do I restart only rapidminer server and not the whole VM? It's a linux machine I tried sudo /etc/init.d/rmserver restart but all I get is a systemctl prompt and it waits for me to type something..... I don't know what.
cat /proc/version says I'm running the following distro on the VM if it matters -
Linux version 3.10.0-862.2.3.el7.x86_64 (builder@kbuilder.dev.centos.org) (gcc version 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-28) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Wed May 9 18:05:47 UTC 2018
There is a note on the documentation page that says the extensions must also be installed on RapidMiner Job Agent. how to do that?
Thank you very much.

@sgenzer @jpuente nevermind, everything is running fine now. It seems it was an issue with one of the output ports of the t-SNE operator, which still exists btw. Basically I had to change my process to only take an output from the exa port of the operator, it is the other out port in that operator that was causing something to blow up in size resulting in the 500: Internal Server Error or the 'User Error'. Maybe I can start a thread about that? Thanks.

Okay so I re-read the manual and saw that the plugins also need to be copied into the /opt/rmserver/extensions directory. So I did that and restarted the server. Problem still persists. Thank you

So turns out in Rapidminer 8.2 things are a little different. The extensions should be copied into /opt/rmserver/plugins. But in order for a process to execute, those extensions must also be available to the Job Agent. This can be done one of two ways -
- Copy all the extensions to /opt/rmserver/job-agent/extensions. Or,
- Edit the config.properties file in /opt/rmserver/job-agent/config and add the line - jobagent.container.extensionsDir = /opt/rmserver/plugins or whatever your plugins directory is and save the file.
2 is a better method as you don't have to duplicate all your extensions to another directory. But that being said, I don't understand why this simple setting doesn't come pre-configured with the server. Users can go change it later if they like. My process executes completely until the end when the results need to be stored on disk. That's when I get - 500- Internal Server Error.

Hi,
Can we see the actual log from the job details page? If it's just the store that fails, we can assume that the extensions have been correctly loaded. Might it be a problem with the path? Is it a relative path?

Hello and thank you @jpuente and @sgenzer.
Attached is a copy-paste of the log taken from executions -> view details on the server. It looks like the extensions issue is solved. I just didn't want to start another thread for the 500 error. I created three folders in root - Data, Processes, and Results, and I'm storing the results under /Results/<project-name>/<result-name>.Thank you.

Hmm. It says it cannot upload the file. Is it very big? Could it fill the filesystem or something like that?

Hi. It doesn't look like the problem is in the process. How big is the VM you're using? What type is it? Would you be able to try it in a different Server?
