                 Key: ACCUMULO-252
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-252
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: start
            Reporter: John Vines
            Assignee: John Vines


One of the common issues we have is users not configuration things correctly in 
the accumulo-env.sh script. Rather than default to setting dirs to non-existant 
system variables, we should have a slightly more descriptive "/path/to/ITEM". 
To work nicely with this, we should check these directories if they exist, and 
if not error out with a descriptive message.

Lastly, we should export all system variables Accumulo will need to read 
(HADOOP_HOME, ZOOKEEPER_HOME, etc.) just in case a user sets the variable but 
doesn't export it.
