Hi there!
So a little background. I've been trying to setup Hive on a CentOS 6 machine.
I followed the instructions of this Youtube video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2lSrHsRpOI
For my case, I'm using Hadoop-1.1.2 and Hive-0.9.0, all the directories labeled
"mnt" in this video I replaced it with "opt" because that's where all of my
hadoop and hive packages have been opened up.
As I reached the portion of the video where I was actually supposed to run Hive
via "./hive" this error popped up:
"Cannot find hadoop installation: $HADOOP_HOME must be set or hadoop must
be in the path"
I guess one of the questions I have is, in which directory did I have to edit
the ".profile" file? because I don't understand why we would have to go to the
"home" directory for this change. And also if this helps, this is what I had
put down in the ".profile" file in my /home/hadoop directory
export HADOOP_HOME=/opt/hadoop/hadoop
export HIVE_HOME=/opt/hadoop/hive
export PATH=$HADOOP_HOME/bin:$HIVE_HOME/bin
Thank you so much!
Sincerely,
Gerald Park
