i have setup virtualbox using cloudera template.

can anybody help in identifying what is missing either in configuration or command?

Solution

  • the path of avro-tools-1.7.6-cdh5.3.0.jar file needs to be specified in the command. and it worked.

    Sample Command

    java -jar /usr/lib/avro/avro-tools-1.7.6-cdh5.3.0.jar getschema part-m-00000.avro > customer.avsc
