Hi all, I've set up a standalone hadoop server , and when I run bin/hadoop dfs namenode -format
I get the following message ( repeating 10 times ) : ipc.Client: Retrying connect to server: localhost/127.0.0.1:50000 My hadoop-site.xml file is as follows : <?xml version="1.0"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?> <configuration> <property> <name>fs.default.name</name> <value>localhost:50000</value> </property> <property> <name>mapred.job.tracker</name> <value>localhost:50001</value> </property> <property> <name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name> <value>/tmp/hadoop_storage</value> </property> <property> <name>dfs.replication</name> <value>1</value> </property> <property> <name>mapred.map.tasks.speculative.execution</name> <value>false</value> </property> <property> <name>mapred.reduce.tasks.speculative.execution</name> <value>false</value> </property> </configuration> Any happen would be appreciated. Thanks a lot , Shimon
