Error while running maven jar file

Question

I created maven jar file from eclipse. Getting following error while running jar.

Error:

 A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again

    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/hadoop/fs/FSDataOutputStream
    at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredMethods0(Native Method)
    at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredMethods(Unknown Source) 
    at java.lang.Class.privateGetMethodRecursive(Unknown Source)

Please guide whether any dependencies need to be added in pom.xml

Also is there any error in pom.xml?Please suggest any code changes

Could you give some detail on how you are running the jar? Is it through Eclipse debug/runtime? Is it command line? What is the command line command? — ProgrammersBlock, Feb 05 '17 at 03:56

A regular .jar archive does not contain its dependencies at runtime, for this you can use the maven-assembly-plugin to create a fat executable Jar:

https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/usage.html

<!-- Create a fat Jar -->
<plugin>
  <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <phase>package</phase>
      <goals>
        <goal>single</goal>
      </goals>
    </execution>
  </executions>
  <configuration>
    <archive>
      <manifest>
        <mainClass>bigdata.UploadHadoop</mainClass>
      </manifest>
    </archive>
    <descriptorRefs>
      <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
    </descriptorRefs>
  </configuration>
</plugin>

As an alternative to a "fat jar", the hadoop jar runner also supports the "jar of jars" format. It's worth noting that it's not standard for a jar, but since it's supported in hadoop, here it is: How do I put all required JAR files in a library folder inside the final JAR file with Maven?

This format is a normal jar, but with a lib/ folder containing all dependency jars.

If you use maven-jar-plugin to build an executable jar, please read the document. http://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-archiver/examples/classpath.html#Make

First, add maven-jar-plugin in pom.xml

<build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
        ...
        <configuration>
          <archive>
            <manifest>
              <addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
              <mainClass>bigdata.UploadHadoop</mainClass>
              <classpathPrefix>classes/lib</classpathPrefix>
            </manifest>
          </archive>
        </configuration>
        ...
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

Second, It doesn't attach the dependency jars to the project jar. So you must be sure the dependency jars(hadoop-client, hadoop-common) are in classes/lib by yourself.

At last, I suggest that you use maven-shade-plugin to build an executable jar(fat jar) http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/examples/executable-jar.html It will attach the dependency jars to the result shade jar by itself. You also use maven-assembly-plugin to build an executable jar, but not recommended.

<build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>shade</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
              <transformers>
                <transformer implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ManifestResourceTransformer">
                  <mainClass>bigdata.UploadHadoop</mainClass>
                </transformer>
              </transformers>
            </configuration>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

Hi, I have a very silly problem that I got stock into. I have a simple(just printing hello world) .class file locally which I can convert it to .jar and run it locally with no problem. However, when I put it in my hadoop cluster I face with a silly bug: JAR does not exist or is not a normal file: /usr/reihan/test.jar I also should mention that I can run hadoop-builtin-examples like wordcount with no problem but when I want to run my own jar I face with this problem. any idea? — Reihan_amn, Sep 23 '17 at 00:10
