Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-1689: ------------------------------------------ +1 The script definitely won't work on SysV sh (which is what /bin/sh is on Solaris). The export commands should be appearing after the variable is set to be more compatible. For example: export JAVA_HOME=blah won't work, but JAVA_HOME=blah export JAVA_HOME should. With the changes that Sun is making in Nevada, this issue may go away at least for Solaris NV+ users. > .sh scripts do not work on Solaris > ---------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1689 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1689 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: scripts > Affects Versions: 0.13.1 > Environment: SunOS acl301 5.10 Generic_118855-33 i86pc i386 i86pc > Reporter: David Biesack > Priority: Minor > > the EXPORT commands in the scripts didn't play nicely w/the default shell & > Hadoop wouldn't start ("... is not an > identifier").
