Hi, I tried searching the mailing list archive, but couldn't find this issue. I have a map reduce job in a jar, and the jars the job depends on are in the lib/ directory of the jar. However, there is an older version of one the libraries (jackson-mapper-asl-1.0.1.jar in hadoop/lib) so I get class not found exceptions. So, how do ensure that my job's dependancies are higher up on the class path than the jars that hadoop happens to have in its lib directory?
Many thanks Russell
