Hi,

I went through this thread (
http://www.apacheserver.net/Using-Hadoop-bundled-in-lib-directory-HBase-at1134614.htm)
which mentions that the hadoop jars ( hadoop-0.20.2/hadoop-0.20.2-core.jar
and hadoop-0.20.2/hadoop-0.20.2-core.jar) can simply be replaced by
hbase-0.90.1/lib/hadoop-*.jar files. Now I have the following jars in
hbase-0.90.1/lib:
hadoop-core-0.20-append-r1056497.jar

In my hadoop-0.20.2/*.jar, I have these jars :
hadoop-0.20.2-ant.jar
hadoop-0.20.2-examples.jar
hadoop-0.20.2-tools.jar
hadoop-0.20.2-core.jar
hadoop-0.20.2-test.jar

If anyone else has tried this way, which jar did you replace?
I tried replacing hadoop-0.20.2-core.jar
with hadoop-core-0.20-append-r1056497.jar. I get this error when I tried to
start dfs:

Am I instead supposed to keep both jars and not replace one with another ?
Won't that lead to conflict?

Thanks,
Hari

It must be replaced, yes (not placed along-side, which would indeed
lead to conflicts).

Could you verify if the supplied jar indeed contains the required classes?
Something like `jar tvf <jar> | grep ClassName` should throw up a result.

An opinion though, given a chance, I'd actually pick up CDH3B4 packs
from Cloudera to setup a HBase cluster (and not really have to worry
too much about these things).

It worked when I added the append jar file to HADOOP_CLASSPATH in
hadoop-env.sh. I think this line in bin/hadoop is the culprit:

for f in $HADOOP_HOME/hadoop-*-core.jar; do
  CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:$f;

The append jar file doesn't match the hadoop-*-core.jar pattern, so it did
not get added to the classpath.

Thanks,
Hari
