Hi Guys,

I have been fighting with this problem for a while now. Every time I try to run 
a mapreduce job I get the 'cannot find quorum server from zoo.cfg' error. It 
would be nice if you can suggest me a way out of it. 
Below is my setup:

I am running HBase with 2 region servers. So in total there are three machines 
one for master and two for region servers. I launch my mapreduce job from a 4th 
machine. The job grabs data from somewhere in HDFS and insert them to an HTable 
created on the 3 machines for HBase. I checked some resources and it seems that 
I need hbase-site.xml on my clients' CLASSPATH, so I added 'export 
HADOOP_CLASSPATH=${HBSE_CONF_DIR}' to hadoop-env.sh but it didn't seem to work. 
I also tried some other ways to add in classpaths but haven't got any luck so 
far. In the end I have to hardcode the configuration into my java file to make 
it work, which is very bad habit and makes my code much harder to maintain. 

I believe this problem is an easy fix but I am just stuck somewhere. Any quick 
advice would be extremely helpful.

Thanks in advance,

Han
