Hi, I am a complete beginner to Hadoop, trying to build 2.2.0 from source on a Macbook Pro running OS X Mavericks. I am following the 'instructions' at http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/SingleCluster.html such as they are. I get the following test failure: Forking command line: /bin/sh -c cd /Users/hadoop/hadoop-2.2.0-src/hadoop-mapreduce-project/hadoop-mapreduce-client/hadoop-mapreduce-client-jobclient && /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -Xmx1024m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -jar /Users/hadoop/hadoop-2.2.0-src/hadoop-mapreduce-project/hadoop-mapreduce-client/hadoop-mapreduce-client-jobclient/target/surefire/surefirebooter1837947962445626736.jar /Users/hadoop/hadoop-2.2.0-src/hadoop-mapreduce-project/hadoop-mapreduce-client/hadoop-mapreduce-client-jobclient/target/surefire/surefire8537321961333093423tmp /Users/hadoop/hadoop-2.2.0-src/hadoop-mapreduce-project/hadoop-mapreduce-client/hadoop-mapreduce-client-jobclient/target/surefire/surefire_1668661782666182940486tmp Running org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.v2.TestMROldApiJobs Results : Tests run: 454, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 11 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Reactor Summary: [INFO] [INFO] hadoop-mapreduce-client-jobclient .................
