Where can I download Hadoop DLL?

Can someone please compile and post (on github)

   1. winutils.exe
   2. hadoop.dll


*for Windows 10 Pro x64* (AMD) for Hadoop 3.2.1 and Hadoop 3.2.2?

This does not work:

   - *https://github.com/cdarlint/winutils
   *


*I get:*

*java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "C:\hadoop\bin\winutils.exe":
CreateProcess error=216, This version of %1 is not compatible with the
version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information
and then contact the software publisher*


---
I have tried following the instructions to compile (from many offering
instructions from many pages) and run into a dead end each time with an
incomprehensible stack trace.

---
Is this too much to ask from Hadoop developers?  There are more developers
out there using Windows and IDE's on Windows than macs and Linux combined.

It's not our choice, it's what companies dump on our desks.

--
I need to run in my Windows IDE and set breakpoints.  My system does not
have resources to install VirtualBox and run a VM in which I set up a full
development environment.

If I run under WSL, WSL I cannot run an IDE under WSL and have the GUI pop
up on windows to debug, same with Docker.

I can run, now I need to debug (in a Windows IDE on Windows 10 Pro x64
(AMD))

So Jesus please....

---
I (and many thousands of others), please need Windows support - not for
Windows NT or XP (as the latest hadoop docs reference), but for Windows 10
Pro x64 - some of us have upgraded since the 90's.

I would also welcome any step by step help on compiling this and maintain a
github page where this is posted.

Nothing has been done in this area in at least two years, and what is there
was compiled on very old hardware ( 32 bit - pre Windows 10 )

Thank you, I would please ask if someone can do this quickly, so I can get
up and running, and then I will contribute by maintaining future builds, as
it is not something the Hadoop developers want to do (that is support
Hadoop development on Windows).

Introduction

I have searched on Google and found that Hadoop provides native Windows support from version 2.2 and above, but for that we need to build it on our own, as official Apache Hadoop releases do not provide native Windows binaries. So this tutorial aims to provide a step by step guide to Build Hadoop binary distribution from Hadoop source code on Windows OS. This article will also provide instructions to setup Java, Maven, and other required components. Apache Hadoop is an open source Java project, mainly used for distributed storage and large data processing. It is designed to scale horizontally on the go and to support distributed processing on multiple machines. You can find more about Hadoop at http://hadoop.apache.org/.

Author's GitHub

I have created a bunch of Spark-Scala utilities at https://github.com/gopal-tiwari, might be helpful in some other cases.

Solution for Spark Errors

Many of you may have tried running Spark on Windows OS and faced an error in the console (shown below). This is because your Hadoop distribution does not contain native binaries for Windows OS, as they are not included in the official Hadoop Distribution. So you need to build Hadoop from its source code on your Windows OS.

16/04/02 19:59:31 WARN NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable
16/04/02 19:59:31 ERROR Shell: Failed to locate the winutils binary in the hadoop binary path
java.io.IOException: Could not locate executable null\bin\winutils.exe in the Hadoop binaries.

Solution for Hadoop Error

This error is also related to the Native Hadoop Binaries for Windows OS. So the solution is the same as the above Spark problem, in that you need to build it for your Windows OS from Hadoop's source code.

16/04/03 19:59:10 ERROR util.Shell: Failed to locate the winutils binary in the hadoop binary path
java.io.IOException: Could not locate executable C:\hadoop\bin\winutils.exe in the Hadoop binaries.

So just follow this article and at the end of the tutorial you will be able to get rid of these errors by building a Hadoop distribution.

For this article I’m following the official Hadoop building guide at https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/common/branches/branch-2/BUILDING.txt

Downloading the Required Files

Download Links

1. Download Hadoop source from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/hadoop/common/hadoop-2.7.2/hadoop-2.7.2-src.tar.gz

2. Download Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (Standalone Installer) from     https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=17718

3. Download Windows SDK 7 Installer from https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=8279, or you can also use offline installer ISO from https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=8442. You will find 3 different ISOs to download: 

   1. GRMSDK_EN_DVD.iso (x86)

   2. GRMSDKX_EN_DVD.iso (AMD64)

   3. GRMSDKIAI_EN_DVD.iso (Itanium) 
      Please choose based on your OS type.

4. Download JDK according to your OS & CPU architecture from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html  

5. Download and install 7-zip from http://www.7-zip.org/download.html

6. Download and extract Maven 3.0 or later from https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi

7. Download ProtocolBuffer 2.5.0 from https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases/download/v2.5.0/protoc-2.5.0-win32.zip

8. Download CMake 3.5.0 or higher from https://cmake.org/download/

9. Download Cygwin installer from https://cygwin.com/

NOTE: We can use Windows 7 or later for building Hadoop. In my case I have used Windows Server 2008 R2.

NOTE: I have used a freshly installed OS and removed all .NET Framework and C++ redistributables from the machine as they will be getting installed with Windows SDK 7.1. We are also going to install .NET Framework 4 in this tutorial. If you have any Visual Studio versions installed on your machine then this is likely to cause issues in the build process because of version mismatch of some .NET components and in some cases will not allow you to install Windows SDK 7.1.

Installation

A. JDK

1. Start JDK installation, click next, leave installation path as default, and proceed.

2. Again, leave the installation path as default for JRE if it asks, click next to install, and then click close to finish the installation.

3. If you didn't change the path during installation, your Java installation path will be something like "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65".

4. Now right click on My Computer and select Properties, then click on Advanced or go to Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings.

5. Click the Environment Variables button.

6. Hit the New button in the System Variables section then type JAVA_HOME in the Variable name field and give your JDK installation path in the Variable value field.

a. If the path contains spaces, use the shortened path name, for example “C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.8.0_74” for Windows 64-bit systems

i. Progra~1 for 'Program Files'

ii. Progra~2 for 'Program Files(x86)'

7. It should look like:

8. Now click OK.

9. Search for the Path variable in the “System Variable” section in the “Environment Variables” dialogue box you just opened.

10. Edit the path and type “;%JAVA_HOME%\bin” at the end of the text already written there just like the image below:

11. To confirm your Java installation, just open cmd and type “java –version.” You should be able to see the version of Java you just installed.

If your command prompt somewhat looks like the image above, you are good to go. Otherwise, you need to recheck whether your setup version is matching with the OS architecture (x86, x64) or if the environment variables path is correct or not.

B. .NET Framework 4

1. Double-click on the downloaded offline installer of Microsoft .NET Framework 4. (i.e. dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe).

2. When prompted, accept the license terms and click the  install button.

3. At the end, just click finish and it’s done.

C. Windows SDK 7

1. Now go to Uninstall Programs and Features windows from My Computer or Control Panel.

2. Uninstall all Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables, if they got installed with the OS because they may be a newer version than the one which Win SDK 7.1 requires. During SDK installation they will cause errors.

3. Now open your downloaded Windows 7 SDK ISO file using 7zip and extract it to C:\WinSDK7 folder. You can also mount it as a virtual CD drive if you have that feature.

You will have following files in your SDK folder:

5. Now open your Windows SDK folder and run setup.

6. Follow the instructions and install the SDK.

7. At the end when you get a window saying Set Help Library Manager, click cancel.

D. Maven

1. Now extract the downloaded Maven zip file to a C drive.

2. For this tutorial we are using Maven 3.3.3.

3. Now open the Environment Variables panel just like we did during JDK installation to set M2_HOME.

4. Create a new entry in System Variables and set the  name as M2_HOME and value as your Maven path before the bin folder, for example: C:\Maven-3.3.3. Just like the image below:

5. Now click OK.

6. Search for the Path variable in the “System Variable” section, click the edit button, and type “;%M2_HOME%\bin” at the end of the text already written there just like the image below:

7. To confirm your Maven installation just open cmd and type “mvn –v.” You should be able to see what version of Maven you just installed.

If your command prompt looks like the image above, you are done with Maven.

E. Protocol Buffer 2.5.0

1. Extract Protocol Buffer zip to C:\protoc-2.5.0-win32.

2. Now we need to add in the “Path” variable in the  Environment System Variables section, just like the image below:

3. To check if the protocol buffer installation is working fine just type command “protoc --version”

Your command prompt should look like this.

F. Cygwin

1. Download Cygwin according to your OS architecture

a. 64 bit (setup-x86_64.exe)

b. 32 bit (setup-x86.exe)

2. Start Cygwin installation and choose "Install from Internet" when it asks you to choose a download source, then click next.

3. Follow the instructions further and choose any Download site when prompted. If it fails, try any other site from the list and click next:

4. Once the download is finished, it will show you the list of default packages to be installed. According to the Hadoop official build instructions (https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/hadoop/common/branches/branch-2/BUILDING.txt?view=markup) we only need six packages: sh, mkdir, rm, cp, tar, gzip. For the sake of simplicity, just click next and it will download all the default packages.

5. Once the installation is finished, we need to set the Cygwin installation folder to the System Environment Variable "Path." To do that, just open the Environment Variables panel.

6. Edit the Path variable in the “System Variable” section, add a semicolon,  and then paste your Cygwin installation path into the bin folder. Just like the image below:

7. You can verify Cygwin installation just by running command “uname -r” or “uname -a” as shown below:

G. CMake

1. Run the downloaded CMake installer.

2. On the below screen make sure you choose “Add CMake to the PATH for all users.”

3. Now click Next and follow the instructions to complete the installation.

4. To check that the CMake installation is correct, open a new command prompt and type “cmake –version.” You will be able to see the cmake version installed.

Building Hadoop

1. Open your downloaded Hadoop source code file, i.e. hadoop-2.7.2-src.tar.gz with 7zip.

2. Inside that you will find "hadoop-2.7.2-src.tar" — double click on that file.

3. Now you will be able to see Hadoop-2.7.2-src folder. Open that folder and you will be able to see the source code as shown here:

4. Now click Extract and give a short path like C:\hdp and click OK. If you give a long path you may get a runtime error due to Windows' maximum path length limitation.

5. Once the extraction is finished we need to add a new “Platform” System Variable. The values for the platform will be:

a. x64 (for 64-bit OS)

b. Win32 (for 32-bit OS)

Please note that the variable name Platform is case sensitive. So do not change lettercase.

6. To add a Platform in the System variable, just open the Environment variables dialogue box, click on the “New…” button in the System variable section, and fill the Name and Value text boxes as shown below:

7. So before we proceed with the build, just have a look on the state of all installed programs on my machine:

8. Also check the structure of Hadoop sources extracted on the C drive:

9. Open a Windows SDK 7.1 Command Prompt window from Start --> All Programs --> Microsoft Windows SDK v7.1, and click on Windows SDK 7.1 Command Prompt.

10. Change the directory to your extracted Hadoop source folder. For this tutorial its C:\hdp by typing the command cd C:\hdp.

11. Now type command mvn package -Pdist,native-win -DskipTests -Dtar

NOTE: You need a working internet connection as Maven will try to download all required dependencies from online repositories.

12. If everything goes smoothly it will take around 30 minutes. It depends upon your Internet connection and CPU speed.

13. If everything goes well you will see a success message like the below image. Your native Hadoop distribution will be created at C:\hdp\hadoop-dist\target\hadoop-2.7.2

14. Now open C:\hdp\hadoop-dist\target\hadoop-2.7.2. You will find “hadoop-2.7.2.tar.gz”. This Hadoop distribution contains native Windows binaries and can be used on a Windows OS for Hadoop clusters.

15. For running a Hadoop instance you need to change some configuration files like hadoop-env.cmd, core-site.xml,hdfs-site.xml, slaves, etc. For those changes please follow this official link to setup and run hadoop on windows: https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hadoop2OnWindows.
