Could not find or load main class org.jruby.Main w

问题:

I am new in hbase. I installed hbase-0.98.5-hadoop2 single node in my Ubuntu 12.04. I finished hbase installation and tried to run hbase shell command in my terminal.

indi60@arrasyid:/hack/hbase-0.98.5-hadoop2$ ./bin/hbase shell
Error: Could not find or load main class org.jruby.Main

I tried googling this error, but I did not find any solution about it. Please tell me what should I do for this error. Should I add some export configuration or install some stuff. Thanks!

I had the same issue. I solved by set HBASE_HOME in ~/.bashrc. Make sure that jruby-complete-1.6.8.jar file found in your $HBASE_HOME/lib.
