Example apps get stuck

["Ramanan R." <ra...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

   I am doing some work on distributed computing, and I'm really glad to
have found a java implementation of mapreduce, since it fits my needs
perfectly, but I have tried unsuccessfully for several days to get hadoop up
and running. Currently, I'm able to run the start-all.sh, so all the daemons
are successfully set up (all on localhost). Then when I try and run the
example WordCount application,


[/hadoop]$ bin/hadoop org.apache.hadoop.examples.WordCount indir outdir

060224 235354 parsing file:/C:/cygwin/hadoop/conf/hadoop-default.xml
060224 235354 parsing file:/C:/cygwin/hadoop/conf/mapred-default.xml
060224 235354 parsing file:/C:/cygwin/hadoop/conf/hadoop-site.xml
060224 235354 Client connection to 127.0.0.1:9004: starting

060224 235354 Running job: job_o2zoub
060224 235355  map 0%  reduce 0%

And it gets stuck there. I'm running this with cygwin on window, with
conf/slaves with a single line 'localhost'. indir has two text files, and
outdir is empty.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
