Q: How to get a running Spring-Data-Hadoop project with Cloudera CDH4 and Maven Since Spring-Data-Hadoop is not released yet, it's hard to find a running example configuration to use it with cloudera.
Which Dependencies I need to choose to get a running Spring-Data-Hadoop together with CDH4 (Hadoop 2.0.0-cdh4.1.3)?
By choosing different apporches I got this Exceptions:

A: This is an example how to configure it.
Maven Setup:
Notes:


*

*(Optinal) Exclude the hadoop-streaming and hadoop-tools from spring-data-hadoop

*Add hadoop-common and hadoop-hdfs with the generic version: 2.0.0-cdhX.X.X

*Add hadoop-tools and hadoop-streaming with the mr1 version: 2.0.0-mr1-cdhX.X.X

*Spring Data Hadoop support only MR1 currently. So be sure you don't included MR2 in other dependencies. Check this with mvn dependency:tree!

With this you should be able to access your cluster.

A: hey you can download it from https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-book.
Building and running it is given in the Read me document.
