I was having trouble with the "-i" parameter for the RecommenderJob in Mahout 0.5
ie: mahout recommenditembased -i /hdfs/dir .... kept telling me that I had not given it a hdfs directory. When i used the full: mahout recommenditembased --input /hdfs/dir .... it ran the job. Anyone else seen this before? Also, can anyone shed a bit of light on using the "--usersFile" flag vs not using it; Seems like it recommends for all users if I dont give it, and I'd assume for only specific users (based on what the code is telling me) if you provide it?
