Thanks for the tip Scott. It looks like there may have been a couple issues 1) I needed to do an mvn install at the top level to install all the other modules 2) I Pair is a generic class so I think that could be an issue with making executable. 3) Running from java/mapred as opposed to the top-level appeared to work.
