Hi Steve,
I did an upgrade to HDP 2.2.4.2 and installed httpfs successfully.
It works with hue Filebrowser and Namenode HA.
There was just one thing I had to change:
in “/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-httpfs/sbin/httpfs.sh”:
add “hadoop-httpfs” to >>exec /usr/hdp/2.2.4.2-2/sbin/httpfs.sh.distro “$@”<<
exec /usr/hdp/2.2.4.2-2/hadoop-httpfs/sbin/httpfs.sh.distro “$@”
after this you can change the webhdfs_url in the hue.ini to use httpfs
One suggestion:
An upgrade to the new httpfs version has not worked in my case.
I had to remove all config folders manually (and removed also everything else with httpfs)
After this I couldn’t install the new version. I had to install httpfs via the rpm-file.
I would suggest to remove the old httpfs version and to make sure there are no old config files
regards
Matthias
