I'm trying to play with Cloudera's Distribution for Hadoop on my EC2 account. For configuring it i'm using THIS tutorial. Everything seems to me fine but when I'm trying to run

hadoop-ec2

I'm getting following error:

max@ubuntu:~/Desktop/cloudera-for-hadoop-on-ec2-py-0.3.0-beta$ ./hadoop-ec2 
/usr/bin/env: python2.5: No such file or directory

I tried to run "which env" got this "/usr/bin/env" and there I have these folders: Python and Python2.6

So, should I rename Python2.6 to Python2.5 or there is another way to change fix this?

Thanks

You just need to install Python 2.5-this SHOULD work-but the best way to find the 2.5 distro is by firing up Aptitude and finding the correct one:

apt-get install python2.5

As root of course.

Thanks for "apt-get install python2.5" it works now, thanks – Maksim Oct 13 '09 at 0:05
I agree with Josh, but it is likely that the script will work with Python 2.6, so you could change the shebang line to "#!/usr/bin/env python2.6" or even "#!/usr/bin/env python" – John Paulett Nov 6 '09 at 3:48
