Re: Simple startup!

Hi!
I tried to change the localhost argument to the actual address found in the
/etc/hosts file
but I ended up with the same thing as before, that Hbase was unable to
connect to
the database. The weird thing is that I installed it the same way on an
Ubuntu machine
and there it worked perfectly.

I had the : there from the beginning but I tried again, and also made a new
table to see if that would help, but not.
When trying to insert a value into a column and row the following line is
used:

curl -v -T /tmp/diff.txt http://localhost:60010/api/y/row/1?column=y:1
where diff.txt is just the > from the output of:
curl -v http://localhost:60010/api/y/row/1 > /tmp/diff.txt

don't think that this could be right, but not sure where to get and put the
files.

The doc. on the wiki may be stale.  Can you add the ':' to the column 
family name and see if it works then?

Hey!
Got everything to work , it was just a silly DNS problem, but it is now
fixed.
But now when I'm trying to access Hbase via the rest interface I get:

<title>Error 500 org.apache.hadoop.hbase.InvalidColumnNameException:
eDo=
   is missing the colon family/qualifier separator

and I'm just trying to follow the instructions on:
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/HbaseRest
and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-269

Is there another simple way to get started with it?

Hey!
I got hbase running  on both the new Kubuntu and the old Ubuntu, but not on
the new Ubuntu and still the same problem
with Fedora 8. I managed to start hbase without hadoop last week, but today
I'm back to have to start hadoop, so I guess
there is something that I'm missing now.

Hi!
Not really, but I will try on Hardy today, I think that the issue is like
said earlier, with some kind of firewall.
But I didn't get it to work without Hadoop either, it just said the same
thing while building the table.

Any luck configuring your network Erik (after our IRC chat)?

So this is what I did!
Installed Hadoop according to the instructions on the
http://www.jakobhoman.com/2007/10/how-to-configure-single-node-hadoop.htmlsite
After that I started a hadoop client with start-all.sh,
Looked at the log  files for Hadoop, and the Interface in Firefox, and
everything looked good.
But when I started the Hbase and looked at that log file, it couldn't
connect.

So then I changed the localhost argument in the hadoop-site.xml to my ip
192....
and the same thing in the hbase-site file

Tell us more Erik.

You changed hbase.master to be some IP?

Then you started hbase and an hbase client was unable to connect to the 
hbase master?  Was client on same machine as the master?  Did the client 
hbase-site.xml have the master's IP?
