UnknownHostException

[Jakob Holck <j....@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I'm running hbase 0.2.1 on top of Hadoop 0.17.2.1 on a Ubuntu VM, and it's
running fine.  I can create/alter tables, ect...

My problem is when i'm tying to run a client, like hbase shell. The shell
starts fine, but when I'm trying to connect to the server I get an
exception:

hbase(main):001:0> list

I can ssh to the server from the client without a p passphrase and username.
My hbase-site.xml file on the server has the this property:

 <property>
    <name>hbase.rootdir</name>
    <value>hdfs://localhost:54310/hbase</value>
    <description>The directory shared by region servers.</description>
  </property>


And my hbase-site.xml on the client has these properties
 <property>
    <name>hbase.master</name>
    <value>hdfs://192.168.253.130:60000</value>
    <description>
      The host and port that the HBase master runs at. A value of
      'local' runs the master and a regionserver in a single process.
    </description>
  </property>

  <property>
    <name>hbase.rootdir</name>
    <value>hdfs://192.168.253.132:60000/hbase</value>
    <description> Not need in the client.
      The directory shared by region servers. Should be
      fully-qualified to include the filesystem to use.
    </description>
  </property>


When I run 'sudo netstat -plten | grep java'  and a 'jps'

I can se that
NameNode is running on port 54310 on the server
