Hi Ron, The first thing that jumps out at me is that you are getting localhost as the address for your zookeeper server. This is almost certainly wrong. You should be getting a list of your zookeeper quorum here. Until you fix that nothing will work.
You need something like the following in your hbase-site.xml file (and your hbase-site.xml file should be in the classpath of all of the jobs you expect to run against your cluster): <property> <name>hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort</name> <value>2181</value> <description> the port at which the clients will connect </description> </property> <property> <name>hbase.zookeeper.quorum</name> <value>node-01,node-02,node-03,node-04,node-05</value> <description>Comma separated list of servers in the ZooKeeper Quorum. For example, "host1.mydomain.com,host2.mydomain.com,host3.mydomain.com". By default this is set to localhost for local and pseudo-distributed modes of operation. For a fully-distributed setup, this should be set to a full list of ZooKeeper quorum servers. If HBASE_MANAGES_ZK is set in hbase-env.sh this is the list of servers which we will start/stop ZooKeeper on. </description> </property> Let me know if that helps, Dave -----Original Message----- From: Taylor, Ronald C [mailto:ronald.tay...@pnl.gov] Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2010 3:18 PM To: 'hbase-u...@hadoop.apache.org' Cc: Taylor, Ronald C; Witteveen, Tim Subject: Question on Hbase 0.89 - interactive shell works, programs don't - could use help Hello folks, We've just installed Hbase 0.89 on a 24-node cluster running Hadoop 0.20.2 here at our government lab. Got a problem. The Hbase interactive shell works fine. I can create a table with a column family, add a couple rows, get the rows back out. Also, the Hbase web site on our cluster at http://*h01.emsl.pnl.gov:60010/master.jsp doesn't appear (to our untrained eyes) to show anything going wrong However, the Hbase programs that I used on another cluster that ran an earlier version of Hbase no longer run. I altered such a program to use the new API, and it compiles fine. However, when I try to run it, I get the error msgs seen below. So - I downloaded the sample 0.89 Hbase program from the Hbase web site and tried that, simply altering the table name used to "peptideTable", column family to "f1", and column to "name". The interactive shell shows that the table and data are there . But the slightly altered program from the Hbase web site, while compiling fine, again shows the same errors as I got using my own Hbase program. I've tried running the programs in both my own 'rtaylor' account, and in the 'hbase' account - I get the same errors. So my colleague Tim and I think we missed something in the install. I have appended the test program in full below, followed by the error msgs that it generated. Lastly, I have appended a screen dump of the contents of the web page at http://*h01.emsl.pnl.gov:60010/master.jsp on our cluster. We would very much appreciate some guidance.
