HADOOP_LOG_DIR has to be set explicitly when running from the tarball
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7895
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7895
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build
Affects Versions: 0.23.0
Reporter: Eli Collins
When running bin and sbin commands from the tarball if HADOOP_LOG_DIR is not
explicitly set in hadoop-env.sh it doesn't use HADOOP_HOME/logs by default like
it used to, instead picks a wrong dir:
{noformat}
localhost: mkdir: cannot create directory `/eli': Permission denied
localhost: chown: cannot access `/eli/eli': No such file or directory
{noformat}
We should have it default to HADOOP_HOME/logs or at least fail with a message
if the dir doesn't exist, the env var isn't set.
