This is a machine identity problem. HBase simply uses the normal Java APIs and asks "who am I?". The answer it gets is ip72-215-225-9.at.at.cox.net. Changing this should only be a matter of DNS configs, starting with /etc/hosts. What is your machine's hostname exactly (run "hostname")? When you ping it, what does it return? That should get you started. Does you machine even have a local IP when you run ifconfig? If not, all you can do is force everything to localhost in your network configs. It also means you cannot use HBase in a distributed fashion.
Changing the code seems like a waste of time, HBase is inherently distributed and it relies on machines having their network correctly configured. Your time might be better spent using a VM on your own machine. J-D On Fri, May 24, 2013 at 12:38 PM, Yves S. Garret <yoursurrogate...@gmail.com> wrote: > That seems to be the case.
