Running from recent trunk, I can't get any sign of life from the 'rowid' command / job. Null Pointer Exception, even when just asking for --help. Details below.
Also I tried running this more directly as 'mahout org.apache.mahout.utils.vectors.RowIdJob --input sparse3/tfidf-vectors/part-r-00000 --output matrixified/' but no success there either. I'm trying to get my book code sparse vectors into a form that can be usefully SVD'd, now that I have made some successful / plausible clusters using those vectors. I think I need first to transpose them so my columns correspond to records/books not their subject codes, but the transpose job complained with type errors, and searching on those led me to discover the 'rowid' task, which I believe I need to use before I can transpose my matrix. So I seem to be stuck. Is rowid the thing to be using here? Dan TellyClub:bin danbri$ ./mahout rowid --help MAHOUT_LOCAL is not set; adding HADOOP_CONF_DIR to classpath.
