hi! i have to use HDFS in my python project and am trying to use thriftfs for it but i cant seem to launch the HadoopThriftServer via the start_thrift_server.sh script
i keep getting this error Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/hadoop/thriftfs/HadoopThriftServer Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.hadoop.thriftfs.HadoopThriftServer at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:217) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:205) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:319) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:294) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:264) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:332) Could not find the main class: org.apache.hadoop.thriftfs.HadoopThriftServer. Program will exit. it says on the internet one place that path to conf must be made part of the classpath and some place else that some jars that should be included by the script are not part of some hadoop distros ... i have tried running the script with hadoop-0.20.2 and hadoop-0.19.2 same error! plz help .... am stuck at the initial phase cant move on to actual HDFS interaction! thanks in anticipation! momina
