Hello Guys, Now that I have downloaded the hadoop 1.1.1 source tar ball, I am trying to compile it for my platform (s390) running SLES 11. I am encountering a couple of problem for which I have some questions:
1) Is there an official guide from the hadoop project showing how to build a binary for a custom target platform? I didn't find anything similar in the tar ball documentation 2) When using maven and trying to compile the hadoop sources, I got the following error: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- localhost:/opt/flume_hadoop/hadoop-1.1.1 # mvn package [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 0.093s [INFO] Finished at: Thu Dec 13 10:23:05 CET 2012 [INFO] Final Memory: 4M/11M [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] The goal you specified requires a project to execute but there is no POM in this directory (/opt/flume_hadoop/hadoop-1.1.1).

But there is no "pom.xml" in the official tar ball. Any idea? 3) Can I compile the package in a simpler way other then maven? Thank you! Cheers, Emile
