Hello all
I'm trying to get Hadoop going on my Windows machine without Cygwin. So far,
I've sorted out the Java Service Wrapper configurations to run the services
necessary for DFS to work:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1525
The next problem seems to be that DataNode is trying to run the df command,
which is rather system specific.
Java 6 added some new methods to handle this issue, but I'm assuming Hadoop
wants to stay compatible with older versions of the JDK. In that case, could
FileSystemUtils from Commons IO be used instead of the df hack?
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/io/api-release/index.html?org/apache/commons/io/FileSystemUtils.html
If this looks like a viable solution, I could try to prepare a patch.
Cheers,
Albert
