I'm writing my first Avro job that is meant to take an avro file and output text. I tried to reverse engineer it from this example:
https://gist.github.com/chriswhite199/6755242
I am getting the error below though.
Error: Found interface org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.TaskAttemptContext, but class was expected
I looked around and found it was likely an issue with what jar files are being used. I'm running CDH4 with MR1 and am using the jar files below:
avro-tools-1.7.5.jar
hadoop-core-2.0.0-mr1-cdh4.4.0.jar
hadoop-mapreduce-client-core-2.0.2-alpha.jar
I can't post code for security reasons but it shouldn't need anything not used in the example code. I don't have maven set up yet either so I can't follow those routes. Is there something else I can try to get around these issues?
