Although I do not know your goal here, note that the trunk is the best place to do dev work if your goal is also to get your work accepted at the end. We allow 1.x to continue receiving improvements but refuse divergence in features compared to trunk and and the ongoing branch-2 releases. Just something to consider! > 1.

To get a 1.0.4 tag checked out from the Apache SVN repository, your command could be: $ svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/tags/release-1.0.4/ hadoop-1.0.4 $ cd hadoop-1.0.4/ Likewise, if you want to work on the tip of the 1.x branch instead, checkout the branch "branch-1": $ svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/branches/branch-1/ hadoop-1 $ cd hadoop-1/ > 2.

You're attempting to build trunk (accidentally, in your case). See above for getting proper 1.x code. However, if you still wish to build trunk, whose build system is different from the older 1.x system, some simple notes for building trunk can be found here: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/QwertyManiac/BuildingHadoopTrunk > So > 1.

Do feel free to post any further questions you have! -- Harsh J
