Here, MYSQL is used as the default database for Ambari, and the following error is reported at startup.

Caused by: com.mysql.cj.exceptions.InvalidConnectionAttributeException: The server time zone value ‘EDT’ is unrecognized or represents more than one time zone.

Solution:

Add servertimezone = UTC to the MySQL URL configuration in/etc/ambari server/conf/ambari.properties to solve this problem

server.jdbc.rca.url=jdbc:mysql://server2.jvwl.com:3306/ambari?serverTimezone=UTC
server.jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://server2.jvwl.com:3306/ambari?serverTimezone=UTC
