NPE in CBayesThetaNormalizerReducer when using HBase
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAHOUT-431
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-431
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Classification
    Affects Versions: 0.3, 0.4
            Reporter: Jeremy Handcock


I'm trying to use the complementary Bayes classifier and store the model in 
HBase (using BayesParameters.set("dataSource", "hbase")).  When I run the MR 
jobs using CBayesDrvier, I get a NullPointerException in 
CBayesThetaNormalizerReducer at line 92:

hBconf.set(new HBaseConfiguration(job));

'hBconf' is a ThreadLocal<HBaseConfiguration> field and it looks like it has 
not been initialized.  I initialized it and the model built successfully.  I 
observed the same bug in the 0.3 release and in 0.4-SNAPSHOT.  I'll attach a 
patch that initializes the field.
