Has anyone successfully run hbase on 64-bit Windows 7? I was able to get hbase working on Windows XP following these instructions:
http://highestpoint.biz/2009/10/installing-hbase-on-windows/ I followed the exact same instructions for a PC running 64-bit Windows 7 but when I run start-hbase.sh I get this error: ": hostname nor servname provided, or not known" On my Windows XP PC I get prompted twice for the password but on my Windows 7 PC I only get prompted once and after that I get errors trying to run commands in hbase shell. Does anyone know why I get the error about hostname not provided? Thanks. John
