Hi Dean, I'm running everything on a single physical machine in pseudo-distributed mode.
Well it certainly looks like the reducer is looking for a derby.jar, although I must confess I don't really understand why it would be doing that. In an effort to fix that I copied the derby.jar (derby-10.4.2.0.jar) into the Hadoop directory, where I assume that the reducer would be able to find it. However I get exactly the same problem as before. Is there some particular place that I should put the derby.jar to make this problem go away? Is there anything else that I can try?

I haven't tried this myself, but the derby jar is probably not on the machine that ran the reducer task that failed. dean On Thu, Nov 1, 2012 at 4:31 AM, Peter Marron <peter.mar...@trilliumsoftware.com<mailto:peter.mar...@trilliumsoftware.com>> wrote: Hi Shreepadma, I agree that the error looks odd. However I can't believe that I would have got this far with Hive if there was no derby jar. Nevertheless I checked. Here is a directory listing of the Hive install: [snip]
