Hadoop native libraries not found on OS/X

Solved macos hadoop hadoop-native-library

I have downloaded hadoop source code from github and compiled with the native option:

mvn package -Pdist,native -DskipTests -Dtar -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true

I then copied the .dylib files to the $HADOOP_HOME/lib

cp -p hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/target/hadoop-common-2.7.1/lib/native/*.dylib /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/share/hadoop/lib

The LD_LIBRARY_PATH was updated and hdfs restarted:

 echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
 /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/lib:
 /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/share/hadoop/common/lib:/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_92.jdk/Contents/Home//jre/lib

(Note: this also means that the answer to Hadoop “Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform” error on docker-spark? does not work for me..)

But checknative still returns uniformly false:

$stop-dfs.sh && start-dfs.sh && hadoop checknative

To get this working on a fresh install of macOS 10.12, I had to do the following:

Install build dependencies using homebrew:

brew install cmake maven openssl [email protected] snappy

Check out hadoop source code

git clone https://github.com/apache/hadoop.git
cd hadoop
git checkout rel/release-2.7.3

Apply the below patch to the build:

How/where did you find the details indicating the above patch were required ? Please update the answer with that as well as the url (or info how to navigate to the url) for the patch. – Nonplus 15/10, 2016 at 0:50

@javadba The patch comes from many hours of reading the code, adding debugging output statements, recompiling and trying again ... – Keramic 16/10, 2016 at 7:54

So it's your patch .. well that makes me feel better for having punted at the time this came up. – Nonplus 16/10, 2016 at 17:1

Also after installing protobuf do not forget to register it in PATH, otherwise maven build fails with protoc --version error echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile – Friseur 8/3, 2018 at 6:53

I get the following error with the above brew install [email protected]: [email protected] was deleted from homebrew/core in commit 60f11879: protobuf@2.*: remove (github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/38446) – Johnsiejohnson 10/4, 2019 at 6:22

to get protobuf follow codetips.coloza.com/2015/07/compile-hadoop-from-source.html – Homebrew 16/5, 2019 at 21:34

There are some missing steps in @andrewdotn's response above:

1) For step (3), create the patch by adding the text posted to a text file e.g. "patch.txt", and then execute "git apply patch.txt"

2) In addition to copying the files as directed by javadba, certain applications also require that you set:

export HADOOP_OPTS="-Djava.library.path=${HADOOP_HOME}/lib/native"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:${HADOOP_HOME}/lib/native
export JAVA_LIBRARY_PATH=$JAVA_LIBRARY_PATH:${HADOOP_HOME}/lib/native

The needed step is to copy the *.dylib from the git sources build dir into the $HADOOP_HOME/<common dir>lib dir for your platform . For OS/X installed via brew it is:

cp /git/hadoop/hadoop-dist/target/hadoop-2.7.1/lib/native/ /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/share/hadoop/common/

We can see the required libs there now:

$ll /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/share/hadoop/common/*.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x  1 macuser  staff  149100 Jun 13 13:44 /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/share/hadoop/common/libhadoop.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x  1 macuser  staff  149100 Jun 13 13:44 /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/share/hadoop/common/libhadoop.1.0.0.dylib

And now the hadoop checknative command works:

$hadoop checknative

6/06/15 09:10:59 INFO zlib.ZlibFactory: Successfully loaded & initialized native-zlib library
Native library checking:
hadoop:  true /usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/2.7.2/libexec/share/hadoop/common/libhadoop.dylib
zlib:    true /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib
snappy:  false
lz4:     true revision:99
bzip2:   false
openssl: false build does not support openssl.

It has a problem compiling with latest openssl. I had to build openssl-1.01u in order for it to work. Also had to change /usr/local/opt/openssl to point to openssl-1.0.1u directory. – River 31/10, 2017 at 12:30
