Problem Accessing Hbase

[sr...@epfl.ch]

Hi,

     I have installed Hadoop and HBase on two different linux machines  
one being Ubuntu and the other Xentos . I was also able to start  
slave(Xentos) from the master(Ubuntu). And the output of "jps" shows  
all the processes running on both master and slave. But when I give  
any query in the hbase shell whether on the master or on the slave it  
displays the following error message  
"org.apache.hadoop.hbase.TableNotFoundException: Table '.META' does  
not exist". But when I run only Hbase on the master(though Hadoop  
running in both) I was able to access the hbase pretty well.

   So, could you please suggest the wrong I might have done.

Regards,
Srikanth.

Srikanth,

Which version of HBase? Can we see your master and regionserver logs? (in
the logs folder on each machine)

Thx
