I setup a new cluster (1 namenode + 2 datanodes). I'm trying to run the
GenericMRLoadGenerator program from hadoop-0.20.0-test.jar. But I keep
getting the ClassNotFoundException. Any reason why this would be happening?
It seems to me like the tasktrackers cannot find the class files from the
hadoop program but when you do "hadoop jar", it will automatically ship the
job jar file to all the tasktracker nodes and put them in the classpath?

$ *bin/hadoop jar hadoop-0.20.0-test.jar
loadgen*-Dtest.randomtextwrite.bytes_per_map=1048576
-Dhadoop.sort.reduce.keep.percent=50.0 -outKey org.apache.hadoop.io.Text
-outValue org.apache.hadoop.io.Text

No input path; ignoring InputFormat

[more of the same exception from different map tasks...I've removed them]

Actually the same thing happens even if I run the PiEstimator program from
hadoop-0.20.0-examples.jar.

Thanks,
