Failed contacting the API node

tamdiku_9495

Hi guys,

I'm on API-deployer and publishing my test services with DSS local for window.
In detail, I've got this err message like:

Failed to get deployment status from API Node 'http://localhost:11200': Command returned unexpected JSON data, please check URL of infra (http://localhost:11200) or server version, caused by: JsonSyntaxException: Expected a com.google.gson.JsonArray but was com.google.gson.JsonPrimitive

I have set API node url = "http://localhost:11200"

Could you help me defined mistake and give some help.

Thanks

Hi @tamdiku_9495
,

The port for the API node seems incorrect, as port 11200 is typically the one DSS runs on when installing with a Launcher( Windows or Mac).

Enterprise-only features like API nodes may not work with Windows Launcher as this installation is meant for Personal use only( not Enterprise use): https://www.dataiku.com/product/get-started/windows/

If you are using a Windows launcher we suggest you switch to using a VM or other installation on Linux which is supported for Enterprise license to test API nodes https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/installation/other/vm.html

The command you use to install the API node would have the port you need to use e.g :
dataiku-dss-VERSION/installer.sh -t api -d DATA_DIR -p PORT -l LICENSE_FILE

https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/installation/custom/api-node.html#installation

https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/apinode/api-deployment-infrastructures.html#static-infrastructure

Please note that to install the API node you need an Enterprise license, the 14-day Enterprise trial license does not work with API nodes.

Kind Regards,
