Attached is a stand alone utility to test compression compatibility
before starting hbase:

Usage: HFileCompressionTest hdfs compression
compression must be one of [ none, gz, lzo ]
Hi,
Thanks for this. I found it very useful this morning. Can we get this
included in the standard distribution?
For those not so familiar with building and running code against hbase,
the following detailed steps may be useful,
1. Download compression test util from
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/hadoop-hbase-user/200909.mbox/%3C4AC272

2. Compile
(change .jar's below to match your hadoop and hbase versions)
javac -cp hadoop/hadoop-0.20.1-core.jar:hbase/hbase-0.20.0.jar
HFileCompressionTest.java
3. "Install"
mkdir -p build/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/test
mv HFileCompressionTest.class build/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/test
4. Run
export HBASE_CLASSPATH=build
hbase/bin/hbase org.apache.hadoop.hbase.test.HFileCompressionTest
hdfs://hbase.example.org:9000/ lzo
