             Summary: HBase must provide commons-cli-1.4 for mapreduce jobs with H3
                 Key: HBASE-20201
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20201
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mapreduce
            Reporter: Romil Choksi
            Assignee: Josh Elser
             Fix For: 2.0.0


Been trying to get some pre-existing mapreduce tests working against HBase2.

There's an inherent problem right now that hadoop-common depends on commons-cli-1.2 and HBase depends on commons-cli-1.4. This means that if you use {{$(hbase mapredcp)}} to submit a mapreduce job via {{hadoop jar}}, you'll get an error like:

My guess is that in previous versions, we didn't have this conflict with Hadoop (we were on the same version). Now, we're not.

I see two routes:
 # We just alter the mapredcp to include our "correct" commons-cli-1.4 on the classpath and remind users to make use of the {{HADOOP_USER_CLASSPATH_FIRST}} environment variable
 # We put commons-cli into our hbase-thirdparty and stop using it directly.

The former is definitely quicker, but I'm guessing the latter would insulate us more nicely.

Thoughts, [~stack], [~busbey], [~mdrob] (and others who have done H3 work?)
