Hello all! I try to install hadoop but I have a problem when trying to format data folder with command "hdfs namenode -format". Error: Could not find or load main class Username

Question

I've tried to change the last line from hadoop-env.cmd and writing something else instead "%Username%" but still the same error. Any help, please?

Hey!

The error seems like the problem is in setting a class-path, I would suggest you add the below following in your ~./bashrc

export HADOOP_CLASSPATH=$(hadoop classpath):$HADOOP_CLASSPATH

This should work
