Ubuntu 12.04 - Which JDK?
Hi,
I am planning to use Ubuntu 12.04, from http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HadoopJavaVersions, about OpenJDK
"Note*: OpenJDK6 has some open bugs w.r.t handling of generics... so OpenJDK cannot be used to compile hadoop mapreduce code in branch-0.23 and beyond, please use other JDKs."
Is it OK to use OpenJDK 7 in Ubuntu 12.04?
Thanks

Hi,
After spending time to research Hadoop and Hbase JDK requirements, here is my advice about using Ubuntu 12.04:
1) If you plan to use HBase on Hadoop HDFS, do note that HBase will run on Oracle's JDK only, so do NOT use OpenJDK or other JDKs for the setup.
2) When installing Ubuntu, should NOT use LVM (Linux Logical Volume Manager) for Hadoop data disks! (There will be performance issue between the filesystem and the device, LVM is the default for some Linux package, be careful not to select LVM)

Hi there,
As per my understanding, all the code has been built and tested against
java6(sun). There are some changes between java7 and 6 and you may face
issues while running your code, like using sort with collections. I faced
the same thing when using List.sort in my code. So, it's better to go with
sun's java6. If you want to install it you can follow these steps :
1. Download the zipped file and extract it.
2. chmod +x jdk-6u37-linux-x64.bin
3. ./jdk-6u37-linux-x64.bin
4. sudo mv jdk1.6.0_37/ /usr/lib/jvm/
5. sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac
/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_37/bin/javac 1
6. sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java
/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_37/bin/java 1
7. sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javaws javaws
/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_37/bin/javaws 1
Then choose which java to use :
sudo update-alternatives --config java
choose the no for java6

Hi Sanjeev,
Unfortunately, official Ubuntu repositories no longer supports Oracle

Recommend JDK 1.6.3x, 1.7 has serval issues within NIO and I wouldn't use them in production, OpenJDK has sometimes a odd behavior and IBM's JDK - no.

I don't think OpenJDK 7 has been as extensively tested as OpenJDK 6
for Hadoop. I'd recommend staying on 1.6-based JVMs if you have a prod
goal for this cluster, but otherwise, you could give OpenJDK 7 a try
and let us know.

AFAIK, openjdk can be used to run hadoop. Why do you want to build hadoop
from source? Get precompiled binaries and you will be ok.
Also, you can install sun/oracle jdk on ubuntu. Just google for
instructions, u will find plenty, like here -
http://www.ubuntututorials.com/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-ubuntu-12-04/.
These are for jdk 7, but you can follow the same to install jdk 6.
