Tom White commented on WHIRR-579:
---------------------------------
That's a neat idea. We could use the Whirr feature that pushes binaries to a
blobstore then localizes on nodes to do this. Still some overhead though, and
OpenJDK is simpler and should be the default as you say.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: service/hadoop
> Affects Versions: 0.7.1
> Environment: any
> Reporter: Antonio Piccolboni
> Attachments: WHIRR-579.patch

> 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.
