Confirmed, I put hadoop-core-1.1.2.jar in Flume's lib dir and this fixed the issue for me. Thanks for the quick response.

That is, I want to be able to use the File channel without loading a lot of extraneous classes or having a full Hadoop install. I'm capturing DNS query log info and sending it to a central server, so I'm using the exec source type to tail –F the query log, and avro sink type to send the messages on. Suggestions for getting the File channel working? Thanks. -- Apache MRUnit - Unit testing MapReduce - http://mrunit.apache.org
