Hadoop installation on Mac El Capitan

Question

I tried to install hadoop-2.7.2 on Mac "OSX El Capitan" and getting error related to Native library:

$ hadoop checknative -a

WARN util.NativeCodeLoader: **Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable**
Native library checking:
hadoop:  false 
zlib:    false 
snappy:  false 
lz4:     false 
bzip2:   false 
openssl: false 

For installation I used command hadoop brew install, I did all the required configuration changes but still no solution. After this I also tried to install hadoop using package available on Apache website but even there also I am facing same issue related to Native library.

Answer 1

You must build your own distribution, however bzip2 is still possibly not supported in Mac. this blog may help you.

You may choose to ignore this warning, it does not harm.
