here are my answers - * * *Why hbase 0.90.2 and not hbase 0.90.4, the latest release?* I have a standalone setup of hbase (0.90.2) in my current production system that has lots of data (~20GB). but its hosted on a m1.large and it is running out of memory. our service is currently in alpha mode. we want to get to beta soon. so my plan was to get a m1.xlarge ec2 instance and copy over all the data from this host to new bigger host and run in distributed mode. so to be safe, i am choosing hbase-0.90.2. is my approach correct?
*Make sure you have the ant optionals or an ant that includes all dependencies as per the above message.* yes i have ant optionals. *That seems like an old verision of ant. Try a newer one?* i am running ant 1.7.1. but when i did google search, i found a place to get ant-nodejs.jar from 1.6.5 and i wanted to quickly try it out. ill get the corresponding one and try it. thanks On Wed, Oct 5, 2011 at 10:26 AM, Stack <[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, Oct 5, 2011 at 9:33 AM, Vinod Gupta Tankala > <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I am following the instructions here ( > > > http://www.michael-noll.com/blog/2011/04/14/building-an-hadoop-0-20-x-version-for-hbase-0-90-2/#examples-use-git-not-svn > ) > > to build my own hadoop distribution that can work with hbase-0.90.2 > version. > > Why hbase 0.90.2 and not hbase 0.90.4, the latest release? > > > > This is not a bug; it is a configuration problem > > --------------------- > > > > Make sure you have the ant optionals or an ant that includes all > dependencies as per the above message. > > > > when i run this on my windows machine, there is no .m2 directory. > > > > I'm not sure how .m2 gets set up on windows.
