Im not casting a vote :BUT thinking out loud: If bigtop is really the "fedora" of bigdata distros, then moving to Java 7 is the natural thing to do.
Fedora integrates the trailblazing linux technology - without fear of consequences.... and I see BigTop as doing the exact same thing in the hadoop community. For me -- BigTop is a platform to innovate and do cool new stuff on -- so I say keep it that way and keep fearlessly moving forward :) On Thu, Jun 26, 2014 at 6:34 PM, Roman Shaposhnik <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi! > > based on Andrew P. suggestion I bumped the > version of JDK6 to the latest update (45) and > it seems to have cured the HBase problem. > > As a side note: for a deprecated, unsupported > platform such as JDK6 there's no reason to use > anything but the latest version anyway. > > But even with that, we still do have quite a few > failures in various components (Hive, Pig, etc.). > > How do we attack it?
