Error message while copy file from LocalFile to hd

Question

I tried to copy file from local to hdfs. Using the command hadoop dfs -copyFromLocal in/ /user/hduser/hadoop

The following error message shown. Please help to find the problem.

DEPRECATED: Use of this script to execute hdfs command is deprecated. Instead use the hdfs command for it.

Answer 1

We can see that you have missing NameNode and DataNode from jps output.

First stop hadoop on hadoop directory

cd /usr/local/hadoop/sbin
stop-all.sh

Then remove the contents of NameNode and DataNode

rm -rf /usr/local/hadoop_store/hdfs/namenode/*
rm -rf /usr/local/hadoop_store/hdfs/datanode/*

format NameNode

hadoop namenode -format

start all over again

start-all.sh

Answer 2

The following steps should fix the issue. However, you may lose data.

• Stop Hadoop :

  • sbin/stop-dfs.sh
  • sbin/stop.yarn.sh

• Delete NameNode & DataNode:

  • hdfs dfs -rm -r /mydata/hdfs/namenode
  • hdfs dfs -rm -r /mydata/hdfs/datanodenode

• Format NameNode

  • hdfs namenode -format

• Start NameNode, Datanodes & YARN

  • sbin/start-dfs.sh
  • sbin/start-yarn.sh
