Hi @geweixuan! We'll need some more information to debug your issue. Everything works fine on my end.

• What command did you use to build alluxio?
• Which branch are you building from?
• and also, if possible, what is the date you attempted to build?
• Are there any useful messages in logs/master.log?

It looks like your installation of Alluxio doesn't include the necessary files at /opt/FileServer/alluxio-1.8.1/core/server/common/src/main/webapp.

What process did you follow to build and install Alluxio? If you follow the steps here to build (https://docs.alluxio.io/os/user/stable/en/contributor/Building-Alluxio-From-Source.html) and run ./bin/alluxio-start.sh local then your web UI should appear.

Otherwise, if you need a tarball that can be installed elsewhere, you can run

./dev/scripts/generate-tarballs single

which should generate a tarball you can put install under /opt

How to include the necessary files at /opt/FileServer/alluxio-1.8.1/core/server/common/src/main/webapp.
I'm follow the steps of (https://docs.alluxio.io/os/user/stable/en/contributor/Building-Alluxio-From-Source.html)
alluxio version 1.8.1, doesn't have web UI

[ZacBlanco]

The following commands will check out v1.8.1 build, and then start it from the repository. They are all found in the document you linked

git clone https://github.com/Alluxio/alluxio.git
cd alluxio
git checkout v1.8.1
mvn -T 2C clean install -DskipTests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip -Dfindbugs.skip -Dcheckstyle.skip -Dlicense.skip
./bin/alluxio-start-.sh local SudoMount
