Getting error while running storm connection with accumulo

I have Storm Bolt like follows,

I just compile the this torm using "mvn comple" and create a package using mvn package then i just run the storm using following commend storm jar target/storm-twitter-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar storm.TwitterStorm after running this commend getting error like follows

Answer 1

It looks like this Storm ticket has a relevant discussion: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-122

I think Accumulo has an slf4j-log4j12 dependency, and Storm uses log4j-over-slf4j which is incompatible. The discussion seems to suggest excluding logging dependencies like slf4j-log4j12 and log4j from your Accumulo dependency. I don't know if this will work, but it's worth a try.
