Jason Rennie commented on HADOOP-2993:
--------------------------------------
Hi Edward,
This change doesn't address the issue I raised---where the variable is to be
changed. A better sentence would be:
Set JAVA_HOME in conf/hadoop-env.sh to the root of your Java installation.
Cheers,
Jason

> Quickstart page (http://hadoop.apache.org/core/docs/current/quickstart.html)
> specifies that user should set JAVA_HOME under "1." of "Required Software".
> But, it does not specify where this should be set. My instinct (as would be
> the instinct of any un*x user) was to set this in his/her
> shell/profie/rcfile. Please specify that this should be specified in
> conf/hadoop-env.sh. Yes, this is clarified later under "Download", but is
> easy to miss, especially since the user will think that he/she had already
> set JAVA_HOME.
