Hadoop requires Java version 1.6 or higher. It seems like hadoop is looking for Java 1.5. Also, make sure the variable HADOOP_HOME is set in file /conf/hadoop-env.sh

I have a line like the following in mine:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/

You need to find where on your machine java is installed:

which java

and then from there follow any symlinks or wrapper scripts to the actual location of the java executable.

An easier way to do this is to run the file indexer and then locate the file (here i use the jps executable, which is in the same folder as java:

#> sudo updatedb
#> locate jps

Whatever you get back, trim off the bin/jps suffix, and that's your JAVA_HOME value. If you can't find the executable, than you'll need to install java
