Error in running Hadoop example on single node cluster

I'm running the word count example provided by hadoop. The following is the error that i am getting:

-bash-4.1$ ./hadoop jar /home/chanders/Hadoop/bin/hadoop-examples-0.20.203.0.jar wordcount /usr/temp_hadoop /usr/output

Information about my installation: I followed the installation instructions from Michaeal Noll's link Here The only change is that i havent created a separate hadoop user. I'm using it under my login.

Solution

  • There was a mistake in the path for the jar. I corrected it.
