Re: HBase master not starting

[Jean-Daniel Cryans <jd...@apache.org>]

Did you create this folder prior to starting hbase?
hdfs://domU-12-31-39-00-28-52.compute-1.internal:40010/hbase
If so, delete it because HBase expects to create it.

Also since you set hbase.cluster.distributed to true then you should
also set the hbase.zookeeper.quorum configuration. And setting
hbase.master in 0.20 won't do anything, you can remove it.
