Hi Arun, thanks for your reply. I actually attempted to format the namenode with the same common you provided, but apparently in 2.2 it has been deprecated:
>"bin/hadoop namenode -format" >DEPRECATED: Use of this script to execute hdfs command is deprecated. Instead >use the hdfs command for it. By playing around I found I could format the namenode with the same parameters on to the hdfs executable: "bin/hdfs namenode -format" Started the namenode: "bin/hdfs namenode" But now all bin/hdfs dfs commands fail with: "'.': No such file or directory" And the hdfs web interface loads, but reports this error: "java.io.IOException: Can't browse the DFS since there are no live nodes available to redirect to." Seems like I haven't started a service, or misconfigured something... any ideas? Thanks, Rodrigo.

I see you have a dedicated user ( hduser), if your hadoop packages directory is owned by hduser. Switch to user hduser and run below command to format namenode. hadoop namenode -format Let me know if you need any other info. --Arun ----------------------------------------- The information contained in this e-mail message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the recipient(s) named above.
