Hi Ted, I see... I was hoping that the program could create it instead of having the user do it, but I guess hadoop is not really meant to be interactive/user-friendly.
About the second step and why I didn't say what input format it used... In the code, I did specify the format. However, it depended upon the file output formats I used in the first step. Because I got so confused, I thought it would be more important to nail down the correct output format in the first step. -- Jim On Dec 17, 2007 10:24 PM, Ted Dunning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I was saying that you didn't do it and probably should have. > > > > On 12/17/07 7:12 PM, "Jim the Standing Bear" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > When you said "You never set the input format in the second step", > > were you instructing me NOT to set input format in the second step, or > > were you asking me why I never set it in the second step? > > > > > > On Dec 17, 2007 10:09 PM, Ted Dunning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> > >> You never set the input format in the second step. > >> > >> But I think you want to stay with your KeyValueTextInputFormat for input > >> and > >> TextOutputFormat for output. > >> > >> > >> > >> On 12/17/07 7:03 PM, "Jim the Standing Bear" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> > >>> > >>> So that's a part of the reason that I am having trouble connecting the > >>> pipes - it seems to me that SequenceFile and SequenceFileOutputFormat > >>> are talking about two different kinds of "sequence files"... > >> > >> > > > > > > -- -------------------------------------- Standing Bear Has Spoken --------------------------------------
