Gabriel- Removing the -D is the right thing to do. The warning re: GenericOptionsParser can be safely ignored.
If you want more info about the warning to put your mind at ease, take a look at src/mapred/org/apache/hadoop/mapred/JobClient.java (line 1550 for context on the warning) src/core/org/apache/hadoop/util/Tool.java (for the Tool interface) -Matt On Wed, Sep 30, 2009 at 8:29 AM, Gabriel Moraru <gmor...@mpi-bremen.de> wrote: > Hi. > > I get a strange error in Hadoop 0.18.3 (Cloudera) while I am trying to run a > streaming job. > The error is: "ERROR streaming.StreamJob: Unexpected -D while processing > -input|-output|-mapper|-combiner|-reducer| etc etc etc" > If I remove all -D parameters the job is accepted by Hadoop.
