Akira AJISAKA commented on HADOOP-10396:
----------------------------------------
Hi, the Single Cluster Setup document is updated by HADOOP-10139 and the new
document will be released in 2.4. I've uploaded the new document in
http://aajisaka.github.io/hadoop-project/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/SingleCluster.html.
> The 2.X official document is in sorry state.
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-10396
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10396
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: documentation
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: doomleika
> Priority: Minor
>
> Hello, I am new to Hadoop 2.X line and I found most of the document does
> poorly, hard to read, and misleading to a point it's doing more harm than
> good.
> Example, most documents in http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.2.0/ identify
> itself as 'Apache Hadoop 2.1.1-beta' instead of 'Apache Hadoop 2.2 release'
> The first section building hadoop from source tells nothing about what
> package required to be built (jdk?g++?)
> That's just tip of iceberg, that second page 'single cluster setup', that
> second section 'Mapreduce Tarball' says:
> 'You should be able to obtain the MapReduce tarball from the release. If
> not, you should be able to create a tarball from the source.'
> What it should do it put a like to hadoop download release link. let alone
> all that confusing test in section 3 'Setting up the environment' which did
> no explaination on what does all that do.
> Lots of documents in release are ridden problems like this. Review is needed
> for those document or at least a warning about it may be outdated.
