David Williams updated HBASE-8944:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
The HBaseTestingUtility appears to have an unhandled NullPointerException in 
certain environments.   It works on Apache HBase 0.94.6.1 on Mac OSX but not in 
certain Linux environments such as CentOS. 

In Java:
{code}
HBaseTestingUtility testingUtility = new HBaseTestingUtility();
testingUtility.startMiniCluster(1);  // blows up on CentOS Linux but not Mac OSX
{code}

Creates this exception:
{code}
ERROR in (create-table) (MiniDFSCluster.java:426)
Uncaught exception, not in assertion.
expected: nil
  actual: java.lang.NullPointerException: null
 at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.MiniDFSCluster.startDataNodes 
(MiniDFSCluster.java:426)
    org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.MiniDFSCluster.<init> (MiniDFSCluster.java:284)

(HBaseTestingUtility.java:568)
    org.apache.hadoop.hbase.HBaseTestingUtility.startMiniCluster 
(HBaseTestingUtility.java:555)
{code}

I also created a stack overflow ticket here, with more info:

Steps to reproduce:

1.  Download a copy of CentOS
2.  Install Java
3.  Fire up a minicluster as part of the HBaseTestingUtility
