Edward,

        I traced the problem in the code to hama.groomserver.local.dir which is 
undefined.  So I searched for it and found
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/hama/trunk/src/java/groomserver-default.xml
 which contains the following:

<property>
  <name>hama.groomserver.local.dir</name>
  <value>${hadoop.tmp.dir}/groomserver/local</value>
</property>

        We debated about whether we simply needed this specific file 
(groomserver-default.xml) but in the end just tucked this 
property inside hama-default.xml and now the groomserver process shows up.

Hi,

For the time being, you don't need to run that server to perform the
matrix M/R computations at this time. (It's a graph computing server,
and still working in progress)

However, I'll check that error.

Thanks!
