Hi Pascal, I've experienced this error. You need to make sure your Giraph is being built and run using the same version of Java. Use 'which java' and 'which javac' to see which ones your system is using.
To make CDH 4.5.0 use Java 7, I had to install Java 7, set it as system default using 'alterntaives --config java', unset the JAVA_HOME environment variable, and add the correct Java binary directory into the path in my .bashrc. See this stackoverflow question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2701100/problem-changing-java-version-using-alternatives Once 'which java' and 'which javac' were pointing to the correct java install, it worked.
