namenode not in tmp, doesn't start
Hello,
I'm just starting out with Hadoop.
As generally advised, I configured namenode to a directory other than /tmp.
When I do this, and try start-all.sh, I get the exception below.
Formatting namenode does not help.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vinutha

Hi Vinutha,
Your name node is not formatted.
Did you try this
Hadoop namenode -format
What are permissions on your
dfs.name.dir directory ?

Did you format your namenode already? You've lost your current fsimage
in that case. Format wipes it - so never format after the first time,
ever.
Or otherwise, perhaps your problem may be defined like this:
- You used to use /tmp/hadoop-*/dfs/name
- You reconfigured to use a non-tmp location
- NameNode won't start now.
If that is the case, you have a chance left if you haven't rebooted
the machine yet. Go to the /tmp location of your dfs.name.dir location
and copy over the directories and files (current/, image/,
previous.checkpoint/, etc.) to under the new location. Start your
NameNode now regularly, should start up.
