It seems excessive :) Thanks, Edward.

But, it does not specify where this should be set. My instinct (as would be the instinct of any un*x user) was to set this in his/her shell/profie/rcfile. Please specify that this should be specified in conf/hadoop-env.sh. Yes, this is clarified later under "Download", but is easy to miss, especially since the user will think that he/she had already set JAVA_HOME. > > -- > This message is automatically generated by JIRA. > - > You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. > > -- B.
