I am unable to build Hadoop on my Windows 8 system. I keep getting this error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.3.1:exec (compile-ms-native-dll) on project hadoop-common: Command execution failed. Process exited with an error: 1 (Exit value: 1) -> [Help 1] org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.3.1:exec (compile-ms-native-dll) on project hadoop-common: Command execution failed.

I have installed:

  • Windows System
  • JDK 1.8
  • Maven 3.0 or later
  • ProtocolBuffer 2.5.0
  • CMake 3.2
  • Windows SDK 7.1
  • Internet connection for first build (to fetch all Maven and Hadoop dependencies)
  • GnuWin32 and Git for instructions like sh and the likes...

From Building.txt: "Unix command-line tools are also included with the Windows Git package which can be downloaded from http://git-scm.com/download/win."

The version of Hadoop I am trying to install is 2.7.0... any help is appreciated

EDIT:

My PATH variable:

I was able to build Hadoop after making a new Windows virtual machine and installing only the required prerequisites. I guess I had some messed up environment variables before.
