I tried with cygwin and there are couple of problems First I had to run dos2unix on all utilities without which they were errors
After the process, I am still getting NoClassDefFoundError:org/apache/hadoop/util/PlatformName However I am able to format DFS and create directories Thanks for help. I will continue to check if Hadoop works with these errors -Senthil On 07/02/07, Doug Cutting <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
