I don't' understand. I can run "hadoop" from anywhere. ie. It's in my path as in ....
[r...@dnvr-dev1 ~]# echo $PATH /opt/jdk1.6.0_23/bin:/opt/hive-0.6.0-bin/bin:/opt/hadoop-install/hadoop/bin:/usr /kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/ sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin [r...@dnvr-dev1 ~]# echo $HADOOP_HOME /opt/hadoop-install/hadoop And notice my HADOOP_HOME is setup as well, but hive still complains. Could it be because I am on fedora and there are linux differences? I noticed there are like 4 scripts that do the check :(. Is there a way to short circuit all of those so I can just temporarily get past this and modify a script in one place to lie about the version?
