Hello hadoop users,
I can't start my jobtracker and am getting an
org.apache.hadoop.security.AccessControlException saying that
my
hdfs://localhost:9000/home/jbu/hadoop_local_install/hadoop-1.0.4/tmp/mapred/system
is not owned by jbu (me, my user). However, I check the folder and it is
indeed owned by me. Details follow.
$ cd /home/jbu/hadoop_local_install/hadoop-1.0.4/tmp/mapred/
$ ls -al
drwxrwxr-x 6 jbu jbu 4096 Apr 15 03:30 local
drwxrwxr-x 2 jbu jbu 4096 Apr 15 03:33 system
Looking inside ./hadoop-jbu-jobtracker-jbu-laptop.log:

So it's still having problems thinking that directory is not owned by me.
The log also said:
2013-04-15 03:34:13,695 WARN org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobTracker: Failed to
operate on mapred.system.dir
(hdfs://localhost:9000/home/jbu/hadoop_local_install/hadoop-1.0.4/tmp/mapred/system)
because of permissions.
2013-04-15 03:34:13,695 WARN org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobTracker: Manually
delete the mapred.system.dir
(hdfs://localhost:9000/home/jbu/hadoop_local_install/hadoop-1.0.4/tmp/mapred/system)
and then start the JobTracker.
So I deleted the system directory and restarted and the same problem
appeared, that I didn't have ownership of the directory. Still won't start.
I am using hadoop 1.0.4 on linux mint.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Julian
