Hi, since I am _compiling_ bigtop on debian (wheezy and currently jessie) I have a couple of issues. Some of them have tickets, others should be documented otherwise.
* Be sure to have a en_US.UTF-8 locale. Pig compile script requires it. It may be better to use C.UTF8 , since this is available everywhere. generate it by hand with "dpkg-reconfigure locales" * I had the problem that one of the compile jobs actually writes into FORREST_HOME (!) * Debian Wheezy: Following packages are too old int the Debian wheezy/stable repo to be used to compile: scala-2.10.4 , ant-1.9.2, gradle-1.12, protobuf-c-compiler-2.5.0 You have to compile/install it yourself I had very obscure maven problems. Had to switch several times until it finally worked. The Download from maven.apache.org Version 3.0.5 finally worked best. * Wheezy: hue: after initial "apt-get install hue" you get an django exception in the console if used the first time: File "/usr/lib/hue/build/env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Mako-0.8.1-py2.7.egg/mako/template.py", line 379, in _compile_from_file module = compat.load_module(self.module_id, path) File "/usr/lib/hue/build/env/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Mako-0.8.1-py2.7.egg/mako/compat.py", line 55, in load_module return imp.load_source(module_id, path, fp) File "/tmp/tmpQHADWH/desktop/common_header.mako.py", line 26, in <module> from search.search_controller import SearchController ImportError: No module named search.search_controller service hue restart and hue seems to work * Debian Jessy/testing: I currently having very very very very obscure maven problems. Most of the time it stopped in site:deploy Target of giraph. Error message : class StringUtils is missing in org.apache.commons.lang. (All packages I found on this machine have it ) I am currently working on isolating the problem. I did not use gradle from debian, and maybe maven from debian is broken too. * It would be very helpful, if the jenkins setup whould be available. https://builds.apache.org/view/All/job/Bigtop-trunk/ What does it do ? IMHO It does _not_ use gradle to compile ?
