Hadoop: ClassNotFoundException - org.apache.hcatalog.rcfile.RCFileMapReduceOutputFormat

I'm facing ClassNotFoundException, when I run my job for the class org.apache.hcatalog.rcfile.RCFileMapReduceOutputFormat.

I tried to pass the additional jar files with -libjars, still I am facing the same issue. Any suggestions will be greatly helpful. Thanks in advance.

Below is the command I am using and exception I am facing!

hadoop jar MyJob.jar MyDriver -libjars hcatalog-core-0.5.0-cdh4.4.0.jar inputDir OutputDir

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/hcatalog/rcfile/RCFileMapReduceOutputFormat

I implemented ToolRunner as well, below is the code which confirms that!

public class OmnitureToRCFileJob extends Configured implements Tool {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        OmnitureToRCFileJob processor = new OmnitureToRCFileJob();
        String[] otherArgs = new GenericOptionsParser(processor.getConf(), args).getRemainingArgs();

        System.exit(ToolRunner.run(processor.getConf(), processor, otherArgs));
    }

}

Id had the same problem but found out the jar command doesn't accept the --libjars argument. "Specify comma separated jar files to include in the classpath. Applies only to job." --> Hadoop Cli Generic Options

Instead you should use the env vars to add additional or replace jars.

export HADOOP_USER_CLASSPATH_FIRST=true export HADOOP_CLASSPATH="./lib/*"

If you look at hadoop command documentation, you can see that -libjars is a generic option. For parsing generic option, you got to override the ToolRunner.run() method in your driver class as follows :

public class TestDriver extends Configured implements Tool {
    @Override
    public int run(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Configuration conf = getConf();

        # Job configuration details            
        # Job submission  

        return 0;
    }        
}

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    int exitCode = ToolRunner.run(new TestDriver(), args);
    System.exit(exitCode);
}

I'nk you are getting this exception from your driver code itself. Setting hcatalog-cor*.jar using -libjars option may not be available in client JVM(JVM in which driver code runs). Better you need to set this jar in HADOOP_CLASSPATH environment variable before executing the same using hadoop jar as follows

export HADOOP_CLASSPATH=${HADOOP_CLASSPATH}:<PATH-TO-HCAT-LIB>/hcatalog-core-0.5.0-cdh4.4.0.jar;
hadoop jar MyJob.jar MyDriver -libjars hcatalog-core-0.5.0-cdh4.4.0.jar inputDir OutputDir

Did you try running by giving full path of "hcatalog-core-0.5.0-cdh4.4.0.jar" jar file in your below line.

hadoop jar MyJob.jar MyDriver -libjars hcatalog-core-0.5.0-cdh4.4.0.jar inputDir OutputDir

or

Below configuration should also work for you

$ export LIBJARS= <fullpath>/hcatalog-core-0.5.0-cdh4.4.0.jar
$hadoop jar MyJob.jar MyDriver -libjars ${LIBJARS} inputDir OutputDir
