I am new to hadoop and i am just trying to see how things work. I am following this tutorial for WordCount . But in step 9 when i execute
hduser@spyros:/usr/local/hadoop/etc/hadoop$ hadoop dfs -mkdir -p /usr/local/hadoop/input
I am taking this message :
DEPRECATED: Use of this script to execute hdfs command is deprecated.
Instead use the hdfs command for it.
mkdir: Cannot create directory /usr/local/hadoop/input. Name node is in safe mode.
I tried everything from here and i take the message:
Safe mode is OFF
but nothing changed still not able to create directory. Is there anything else i could try? Using Hadoop 2.6.0 on Ubuntu 16.04LTS.
