Drew Farris commented on MAHOUT-427:
------------------------------------

I wasn't able to reproduce this issue following the wiki instructions (up to 
step 9, running the hadoop cluster in single-node mode), leaving out the mvn 
install on the examples directory.

Is there any chance you could try a 'mvn clean install' (from the base 
directory) with your working copy to see if it still refuses to build an 
examples job? Otherwise, could you check out a fresh copy and give that a try?

Somewhat unrelated but worth noting: when I did run build-reuters,sh, k-means 
converged after 8 iterations instead of 10 and thus the clusterdump step did 
not complete successfully. When you finally managed to get the examples to run, 
what was the highest numbered clusters-* directory in 
examples/bin/work/reuters-kmeans


> $MAHOUT_HOME/examples/bin/build-reuters.sh doesn't run successfully because 
> of classpath issues related to the -core argument

> Once I resolved issue MAHOUT-426 , I was still not able to run the 
> ./examples/bin/build-reuters.sh script without errors  These were 
> ClassNotFoundExceptions, indicating a problem with the classpath.  
> The issue appears to be related to the "-core" argument, which controls the 
> classpath.  Placing '-core' as the first argument to the individual 
> $MAHOUT_HOME/bin/mahout calls in the script solved the issue, but I'm not 
> sure it was the correct solution.  It's unclear to me what the '-core' 
> argument is supposed to signify.
> Can someone shed some light on this, and tell me whether this is the correct 
> solution to the problem?  And if not, what is the correct solution to this 
> classpath issue.
