May I ask why you're trying to run the NameNode in Eclipse? This is likely going to cause you lots of classpath headaches. I think your current problem is that it can't find its config files, so it's not able to read in the strings for what addresses it should listen on.
If you want to see what's happening inside the namenode, I'd run "bin/hadoop-daemon.sh start namenode" to start it, then fire up Eclipse and attach the debugger externally. You can then point it at your copy of the Hadoop source code so you can set breakpoints, trace, etc. - A On Wed, Aug 5, 2009 at 9:51 PM, ashish pareek <pareek...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi Everybody, > > I am trying to run hadoop from eclipse... but when i run > NmaeNode.java as java appliaction i get following error.....
