Su,
 There are rest calls implemented for seeing the issues. If its during
the install you are seeing issues you can check for all the logs by
calling this api:

http://<ambari-server>:8080/api/v1/clusters/<clustername>/requests/<id>?fields=tasks/*

where id can be 1/2/3/4..... depending on how many times you tried the
install/start.

This should give you the logs for why the installation failed. If you
want to open a jira for this, and upload the snapshot of what state
your install is in, we can track it on the jira and also will be
helpful to debug.

thanks
mahadev
