Installing openTSDB on Ubuntu15.04

Question

I have installed openTSDB(.deb package) on ubuntu 15.04 by following the guidelines stated in documentation. when I give this command "service opentsdb start" it is not starting and it is mentioned in documentation that we have to change some configuration files.can anyone please tell me what are the changes that we have to do and in which file the changes have to be done?

Thanks in advance

Check your logs in /var/log/opentsdb/opentsdb.log. You should have HBase up&running correctly (means i.e. you are able to create table and store some values)

Remember you have to create tables in HBase running

env COMPRESSION=NONE HBASE_HOME=path/to/hbase-X.XX.X /usr/share/opentsdb/tools/create_table.sh
