I have created an map-red job which uses the apache-commons-cli library shipped with the hadoop under $HADOOP_HOME/lib/.

Now, if I create a jar and then try to run my job using 

./hadoop -jar myjob.jar

I get the below exception:

Warning: $HADOOP_HOME is deprecated.

I can see that common-cli-xxx.jar is present in my $HADOOP_HOME/lib dir. I don't know what wrong I am doing here.

Type just hadoop in your terminal if it does not show list of all the hadoop command, you can check whether 

export PATH=$PATH:$HADOOP_HOME/bin
export HADOOP_HOME=/usr/local/hadoop

lines are added to your .bashrc

  • It shows me the list of hadoop command. Still facing the same issue. Any other guesses...? – ASingh Oct 12 '13 at 04:22
  • check this it might help it will suppress the warning regarding the error we need to see.http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9286983/hadoop-home-is-deprecated – sameer_mishra Oct 13 '13 at 15:35
  • you need to add Apache Commons CLI jar in your classpath.your program is not able to find the CommandLineParser – sameer_mishra Oct 13 '13 at 15:39
  • export myjob.jar with all hadoop lib in its classpath and then try executing the jar – K S Nidhin Oct 17 '13 at 08:57
