I am running basic hadoop examples on amazon emr and I am stuck at a very simple place. I am apparently not passing the right "classname" for inputFormat
>From hadoop documentation it seems like "TextInputFormat" is a valid option for input format I am running a simple sort example using mapreduce. Here is the command variations I tried, all to vain: $usr/local/hadoop/bin/hadoop jar /path to hadoop examples/hadoop-0.18.0-examples.jar sort -inFormat TextInputFormat -outFormat TextOutputFormat /path to datainput/datain/ /path to data output/dataout The sort function does not declare "TextInputFormat" in its import list. Could that be a problem ? Could it be a version problem? Any help is aprpeciated!
