I'm unable to locate the file hadoop-ec2-env.sh.

I've downloaded and intalled hadoop_1.0.4-1_x86_64.deb from http://mirror.olnevhost.net/pub/apache/hadoop/common/stable/

This is the most recent stable version.

I would like to run hadoop on EC2.

I'm following a tutorial that says: Edit all relevant variables in src/contrib/ec2/bin/hadoop-ec2-env.sh.

Where is hadoop-ec2-env.sh?

  • I think those instructions are really out of date, I've checked the debs they publish and I can't find that file anywhere. – Jorge Castro Apr 26 '13 at 18:47
  • @JorgeCastro thank you very much for checking. could you recommend to me what i can do to to "edit relevant variables..." which file should i be touching? – Alex Gordon Apr 26 '13 at 19:45

This is a partial answer that needs more investigation by someone who's deployed Hadoop before.

It seems that those instructions are out of date, I tried both 1.0.x and 1.1.x debs and neither have the file src/contrib/ec2/bin/hadoop-ec2-env.sh.

However there is a /etc/default/hadoop-env.sh file that has environment variables in it, no clue if this is the right place to put the AWS credentials though.
