19888 NameNode
20388 DataNode
20898 NodeManager
20343 SecondaryNameNode
20539 ResourceManager
21118 Jps

But when ever i am trying to execute any command like hdfs dfs -ls / getting this warnings

hadoopusr@amalendu:~$ hdfs dfs -ls /
WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred

Please help how to fix this. This is my ~/.bashrc file configuration

Use Java 8 for Hadoop. Spark, Scala, etc. do not yet support Java 9 or newer yet. – Aziza

your datanode had been closed – Rizzo

@H.king Yes, I have fixed it – Friel

Answer 1

This has been fixed in Hadoop 3.3 and 3.2.2 via. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10848

Answer 2

There is nothing you can do about these warnings, this is related to jigsaw project and strong(er) encapsulation.

Basically there is some class called sun.security.krb5.Config that is part of some "module" called java.security.jgss. This module "defines" what it exports (what others can use out of it) and to whom. This also means in plain english that this is not for the public usage - don't touch it; well hadoop did, it's part of their effort to fix this. You can report this or try to upgrade hadoop, may be this is already fixed.

Thanks, But is there any way to hide this warnings ? – Friel

@AmalenduKar no, these are issued by the compiler – Consignee

Sir i removed java 11 and installed java 8, All are gone but "WARN util.NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable " this occour. – Friel

@AmalenduKar this is entirely different and you should post a different question about it most probably – Consignee

@AmalenduKar The message means that the hadoop native libraries are compiled 32-bit and you are running on a 64-bit setup. You can ignore that message for a small Hadoop setup. – Aziza

You can use the --add-opens option to temporarily open the sun.security.krb5 package. That will eliminate the warning but it is important to make sure that the Hadoop maintainers are aware of the issue. Once the JDK internals are fully encapsulated then hacks like this will break. – Herman

@AlanBateman that is one of the reasons I did not want to post that... thank you! – Consignee

Answer 3

this problem is due to latest java upgrades.please configure it with java 8.its working swiftly.
