Eli Collins resolved HADOOP-4042.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Per other jira we only check JAVA_HOME (and java_home on osx)
> bin/hadoop should check `which java` to find java
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-4042
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4042
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: scripts
> Affects Versions: 0.18.0
> Reporter: Michael Bieniosek
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently, the bin/hadoop script tries to find java in JAVA_HOME/bin/java.
> If JAVA_HOME is not set, it errors out.
> Instead, I think it should check `which java 2>/dev/null` to see if there is
> a java on the user's PATH. If a java is on the user's path, the script
> should just set JAVA=java.
