I recently installed HBase on Ubuntu 11.10 (and 10.04) and it was quite trivial ... Read this: http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#quickstart And then there are only 2 gotcha's 2.2.3. Loopback IP HBase expects the loopback IP address to be 127.0.0.1. Ubuntu and some other distributions, for example, will default to 127.0.1.1 and this will cause problems for you. /etc/hosts should look something like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.0.1 ubuntu.ubuntu-domain ubuntu AND in .bashrc do something to set JAVA_HOME # JAVA_HOME for HBase/JRuby/rubymine export JAVA_HOME='/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre' If this still fails, then send detailed logs of what you tried and what failed and which error message you got. (I had install the Oracle Java on here longer ago, so that "may" be required too). HTH, Peter
