Ramya, The MapR Drill 1.8 package has not been released yet. The latest MapR Drill Sandbox is Drill 1.6 on MapR 5.1.
Which is available from here http://maprdocs.mapr.com/home/Drill/Installing-the-Apache-Dri_27689260.html <http://maprdocs.mapr.com/home/Drill/Installing-the-Apache-Dri_27689260.html> Once the MapR Drill 1.8 packaging is released you can upgrade to Drill 1.8 on the Sandbox or see if a newer version is available with Drill 1.8 on it. Do you need Drill 1.8 now or is 1.6 sufficient in the short term? --Andries > On Sep 12, 2016, at 2:24 PM, Ramya Vasudevan <rvasude...@tableau.com> wrote: > > > Hi > > I used MapR-Sandbox-For-Apache-Drill-1.4.0-5.0.0-vmware.ova to install Mapr > 5.0 with Drill 1.6.0 on a CentOS 6.7 VM in the past. > > I am now trying to upgrade drill to 1.8.0 and downloaded > apache-drill-1.8.0.tar.gz from > https://drill.apache.org/blog/2016/08/30/drill-1.8-released/ > > Looking at > http://doc.mapr.com/display/MapR/Upgrading+to+the+Latest+Version+of+Drill, I > gather that a yum upgrade to 1.8.0 rpm is not possible.
