I built phoenix-0.4.7-0.98 from source and I am trying start tephra. I added
<property> <name>data.tx.snapshot.dir</name> <value>/tmp/tephra/snapshots</value> </property> <property> <name>data.tx.timeout</name> <value>60</value> </property> To the server's hbase-site.xml and export HBASE_HOME to point the HBase install. I double and triple checked this. Yet, regardless of what I do tephra fails to startup and I see this in the logs: Exception in thread "HDFSTransactionStateStorage STARTING" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Snapshot directory is not configured. Please set data.tx.snapshot.dir in configuration. at com.google.common.base.Preconditions.checkState(Preconditions.java:149) at co.cask.tephra.persist.HDFSTransactionStateStorage.startUp(HDFSTransactionStateStorage.java:91) at com.google.common.util.concurrent.AbstractIdleService$1$1.run(AbstractIdleService.java:43) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745) Has anybody else seen this? -- Lars
