sun jdk install fails
---------------------
Key: WHIRR-579
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-579
Project: Whirr
Issue Type: Bug
Components: service/hadoop
Affects Versions: 0.7.1
Environment: any
Reporter: Antonio Piccolboni
Due to changes in licensing terms, automatic download from Oracle of the sunjdk
is not working. Hence Hadoop installs but fails to launch. To add insult to
injury, launch-cluster doesn't fail and I couldn't find a related message in
the logs. Potential workarounds need to take into account that it seems like a
human has to click on the dreaded Oracle TOS (disclaimer: I am not a lawyer and
will never be). How to make that happen with whirr is unclear. The option of
not supporting sunjdk seems unappealing as there is limited testing experience
with it, I hear from people at Cloudera. But the apache hadoop compatibility
page states that that sunjdk is needed only for building. Clarity on this would
be helpful to plan ahead.
