Problems with genetic algorithms in Mahout

[Jose Fuentes De Frutos <in...@udc.es>]

Hello!, 

I am working with genetics algorithms in Mahout. Specifically I am trying to use the "MahoutEvaluator" to evaluate my own FitnessEvaluator based on the DummyEvaluator. The problem is that if I execute the program sequentially without hadoop ($ java -jar geneticoJose2.jar) the program finish correctly, but if I try to execute it in a pseudo-distributed mode ($ /home/jose/Descargas/hadoop-0.20.203.0/bin/hadoop jar geneticoJose2.jar) an error occurs:

Does anybody know why it happens? Could this be produced by incompatibilities between Mahout and Hadoop versions? 

Thank you in advance.
