Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/hadoop/util/PlatformName

[Ashwin Bhattathiripad]

Hello,

I know there have been many post regarding this exception, but I am not able to fix this issue. I am trying to run a program called DistMap in Hadoop infrastructure. This is the error I am getting.

Error could not create input directory /distmap_output_input folder on hdfs file system

I know there is some problem with classpath. But I dont know much about it. Can anyone help me fix it?

Thanks,
Ashwin

I think it is not the problem of classpath. 

It seems JPF can't handle hadoop, or you need to model it yourself.
