documentation lists options in wrong order
------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7220
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7220
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Dieter Plaetinck
Priority: Minor
On http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/r0.20.2/streaming.html various example
use -D flags.
I noticed if you invoke hadoop this way, it won't work.

-verbose
Generic options supported are
-conf <configuration file> specify an application configuration file
-D <property=value> use value for given property
-fs <local|namenode:port> specify a namenode
-jt <local|jobtracker:port> specify a job tracker
-files <comma separated list of files> specify comma separated files to be
copied to the map reduce cluster
-libjars <comma separated list of jars> specify comma separated jar files to
include in the classpath.
-archives <comma separated list of archives> specify comma separated

The general command line syntax is
bin/hadoop command [genericOptions] [commandOptions]
For more details about these options:
Use $HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop jar build/hadoop-streaming.jar -info
Streaming Job Failed!
========================
I could only make it work by moving the '-D flags to the front' (right after
the streaming.jar part). maybe because it's a generic option, it needs to be
in front or something.
