Master node unable to bind to DNS hostname ------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-1638 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1638 Project: Hadoop Issue Type: Bug Components: contrib/ec2 Affects Versions: 0.13.0, 0.13.1, 0.14.0, 0.15.0 Reporter: Stu Hood Priority: Minor With a release package of Hadoop 0.13.0 or with latest SVN, the Hadoop contrib/ec2 scripts fail to start Hadoop correctly. After working around issues HADOOP-1634 and HADOOP-1635, and setting up a DynDNS address pointing to the master's IP, the ec2/bin/start-hadoop script completes. But the cluster is unusable because the namenode and tasktracker have not started successfully. Looking at the namenode log on the master reveals the following error: #2007-07-19 16:54:53,156 ERROR org.apache.hadoop.dfs.NameNode: java.net.BindException: Cannot assign requested address # at sun.nio.ch.Net.bind(Native Method) # at sun.nio.ch.ServerSocketChannelImpl.bind(ServerSocketChannelImpl.java:119) # at sun.nio.ch.ServerSocketAdaptor.bind(ServerSocketAdaptor.java:59) # at org.apache.hadoop.ipc.Server$Listener.<init>(Server.java:186) # at org.apache.hadoop.ipc.Server.<init>(Server.java:631) # at org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RPC$Server.<init>(RPC.java:325) # at org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RPC.getServer(RPC.java:295) # at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.NameNode.init(NameNode.java:164) # at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.NameNode.<init>(NameNode.java:211) # at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.NameNode.createNameNode(NameNode.java:803) # at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.NameNode.main(NameNode.java:811) The master node refuses to bind to the DynDNS hostname in the generated hadoop-site.xml.
