Michael Bieniosek commented on HBASE-850:
-----------------------------------------
> we need to be really careful here - on most Debian based distros, the
> standard /usr/bin/java is a highly obsolete, non-sun JDK that is 150%
> inappropriate for running HBase.
That sounds like a different problem. I have machines where /usr/bin/java is
the correct Sun java to use.
> bin/hbase should check `which java` to find java

> Key: HBASE-850
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-850
> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: scripts
> Reporter: Michael Bieniosek
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently, the bin/hbase script tries to find java in JAVA_HOME/bin/java. If
> JAVA_HOME isn't set, it errors out.
> Instead, I think it should check `which java 2>/dev/null` to see if there is
> a java on the user's PATH. If a java is on the user's path, the script should
> just set JAVA=java.
