Hi, All I have installed whirr-0.1.0+23, Java 1.6, Maven 2, Ruby 1.9 in my ubuntu, so I set up a Hadoop.properties file in order to fire up a cluster in amazon ec2 via
bin/whirr launch-cluster --config hadoop.properties It worked well if my hadoop.properties as below: whirr.service-name=hadoop whirr.cluster-name=myhadoopcluster whirr.instance-templates=1 jt+nn,1 dn+tt whirr.provider=ec2 whirr.identity=< Amazon EC2 Access Key ID> whirr.credential=< Amazon EC2 Secret Access Key> whirr.private-key-file=${sys:user.home}/.ssh/id_rsa whirr.public-key-file=${sys:user.home}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub whirr.hardware-id= m1.large whirr.location-id=us-west-1 whirr.hadoop-install-runurl=cloudera/cdh/install whirr.hadoop-configure-runurl=cloudera/cdh/post-configure But once i added two more lines into hadoop.properties file, it went wrong: whirr.image-id= us-west-1/ami-***** (my ami) jclouds.ec2.ami-owners=(my owner id> I wonder if anyone knows what is going on or how to fix it. Thanks -allen
