Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-1689: --------------------------------------- Rather that requiring Solaris boxes link /bin/bash to where bash lives, the standard trick is to use: {code} #!/usr/bin/env bash ... rest of script ... {code} Using the env command to look up bash on the path is cheating, but it is a pretty standard cheat. > .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"). I changed the first #! line of bin/hadoop-daemon.sh and > bin/hadoop to specify bash, then everything worked: > #!/bin/bash > ksh is probably another option that will work, but we did not try that -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
