Hi Ben,
Are you running HBase in local mode? Did you also set hbase.rootdir?
hbase.rootdir defaults to file:///tmp/hbase-${user.name}/hbase.

Subject: hbase.tmp dir property not working
Any have any issues with the following property not working.
<property>
<name>hbase.tmp.dir</name>
<value>/Users/ben//hbase</value>
<description>The directory shared by RegionServers.
</description>
</property>
When I set this, hbase still creates it's filesystem in /tmp/hbase-ben
