Nutch script does not require HADOOP_HOME
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: NUTCH-1085
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1085
             Project: Nutch
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.4, 2.0
            Reporter: Julien Nioche
            Assignee: Julien Nioche
             Fix For: 1.4, 2.0


The Nutch script currently requires HADOOP_HOME to be set and point to a valid 
HADOOP setup in order to run in distributed mode. What is actually needs is not 
the location of the whole Hadoop setup but just to be able to call the 
executable 'hadoop'. This requires the users to add HADOOP_HOME/bin to their 
path. 
Moreover when using Nutch on Hadoop distribs such as Cloudera's CDH, the 
various parts of Hadoop are located in a separate directories so the concept of 
HADOOP_HOME is not necessarily relevant to find the hadoop executable.
