Hi Did you install Snappy , following the instructions present on the website?
Just for reference quoting from there 1. Expand hadoop-snappy-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.tar.gz file Copy (recursively) the lib directory of the expanded tarball in the <HADOOP_HOME>/lib of all Hadoop nodes $ cp -r hadoop-snappy-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT/lib/* <HADOOP_HOME>/lib IMPORTANT: Hadoo Snappy 0.0.1-SNAPSHOT tarball includes Snappy native library. 2. Add the following key/value pairs into core-site.xml <property> <name>io.compression.codecs</name> <value> org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.GzipCodec, org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.DefaultCodec, org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.BZip2Codec, org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.SnappyCodec </value> </property> 3. Restart Hadoop.
