Problems running local installation of hadoop on single-node cluster
I followed instructions given by tutorials to run hadoop-0.21 on a single node
cluster.
The first problem I encountered was that of HADOOP-6953. Thankfully that has
got fixed.
The other problem I am facing is that the datanode does not start. This I guess
because when I run stop-dfs.sh for datanode, I get a message
"no datanode to stop"
I am wondering if it is related remotely to the difference in the IP addresses
on my computer
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 my-laptop
Although I am aware of this, I do not know how to fix this.
I am unable to even run a simple pi estimate example on the haddop installation
This is the output I get is
bin/hadoop jar hadoop-mapred-examples-0.21.0.jar pi 10 10
Number of Maps = 10
Samples per Map = 10
11/03/02 23:38:47 INFO security.Groups: Group mapping
impl=org.apache.hadoop.security.ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping; cacheTimeout=300000
And nothing else for long long time.
I have not set the dfs.namedir and dfs.datadir in my hdfs-site.xml. But After
running bin/hadoop namenode -format, I see that the tmp.dir has a folder with
dfs/data and dfs/data folders for the two directories.
what Am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated.
Here are my configuration files
