You can do it the long way and add this to hadoop file....(and run
./hadoop jobtracker)....
#uncomment to debug processes
export HADOOP_OPTS="-Xdebug
-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=9009
$HADOOP_OPTS"
to the next to last line in hadoop(it would be GREAT if a developer
would put that in there commented out or like jboss's run.conf, have it
there for developers to easily turn on debugging).
Anyways, stepping through the code, you finally find out, it is using
not hdfs-site but mapred-site.xml so move your properties to that file.
This is just for the next person that might get stuck on this issue. I
didn't see that in the docs or was using the wrong outdated docs or
something.
