Sean Mackrory created HADOOP-9468:
-------------------------------------
Summary: JVM path embedded in fuse binaries
Key: HADOOP-9468
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9468
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sean Mackrory
Assignee: Sean Mackrory
When the FUSE binaries are built, the paths to libraries in the JVMs is
embedded in the RPATH so that they can be found at run-time. From an Apache
Bigtop perspective, this is not sufficient because the software may be run on a
machine configured very differently from the one on which they were built - so
a wrapper sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH according to JAVA_HOME. I recently saw an issue
where the original JVM path existed, causing LD_LIBRARY_PATH to be ignored in
favor of the RPATH, but it was not the JVM intended for running Hadoop (not
JAVA_HOME), and this caused problems.
I'm told that setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH is standard practice before using the
fuse program anyway, and if that's the case, I think removing the RPATH from
the binaries is a good idea.
