Accessing Hadoop clusters from eclipse

Question

I just followed the Hadoop(0.20.2) installation tutorial and did the set up. I can run map reduce program on the cluster through eclipse. Now my problem is how can I connect to Hadoop clusters from my local system. Local system is windows 7 and I have installed eclipse plugin for Hadoop. I was trying to connect to Hadoop from my local system which is windows(My local system and Hadoop system are in same subnet). I got connection timed out error while connecting to Hadoop server.

In configuration files of Hadoop I have given actual IP addresses. Not sure which step I have missed out?

Answer 1

I recently read, that the eclipse plugin won't work at all. But you can simply connect to your Cluster with the configuration keys:

mapred.job.tracker 
fs.default.name

EDIT: here is a working version Apache Jira: Eclipse Plugin does not work with Eclipse Ganymede (3.4)
