[jira] [Created] (DRILL-1254) Documentation errata in first iteration

Keys Botzum created DRILL-1254:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Documentation errata in first iteration
                 Key: DRILL-1254
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-1254
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 0.4.0
            Reporter: Keys Botzum
            Priority: Minor


using RC 0.4.0 was testing things and following the documentation.

followed these instructions for distributed cluster (just one node in my case): https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DRILL/Deploying+Apache+Drill+in+a+Clustered+Environment. I then followed the query sample data instructions: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DRILL/Apache+Drill+in+10+Minutes#ApacheDrillin10Minutes-QuerySampleData

noted these doc issues in the above:
* state that Oracle Java is required. I used OpenJDK without trouble.
* mentions MapR specifically (/opt/mapr) which is probably not appropriate
*  talks about editing drill-override in a way that I found very unclear. It doesn't make clear what is to be edited vs. is shown as context. 
* say you need to specify the ZK information. That doesn’t seem to be true since the drillbit reads the drill conf file as far as I can tell.
* mention specifying a userid & password when starting sqlline which has no meaning at this point
* the sample query doc assumes a relative path for the parquet queries (`apache-drill-0.4.0-incubating/sample-data/region.parquet`) which depends on where you installed Drill. Absolute paths work fine.
