Hadoop on Windows. YARN fails to start with java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError

Question

I have installed/configured Hadoop on windows hadoop-2.7.0

I could successfully start "sbin\start-dfs" run command. DataNode and NameNode started. I could create directory, add file into hadoop system.

But now when I try "sbin/start-yarn" on "resourcemanager" window I do not see error. But it failes on yarn's "namenode"

it fails with this error :-

I had faced similar problem while "sbin\start-dfs". I tried different things. It looks like it was solved when I added hadoop's "bin" and "sbin" in path.

Can you please suggest the solution for Yarn problem.

Answer 1

there should be a %HADOOP_HOME%\bin\hadoop.dll which contains the native method. %HADOOP_HOME%\bin should be in the path. If you built from source, make sure the hadoop.dll was built and placed.
