I am running on Hadoop 1.0.4 and I would like to use Snappy for map output compression. I am adding the configurations:
configuration.setBoolean("mapred.compress.map.output", true);
configuration.set("mapred.map.output.compression.codec", "org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.SnappyCodec");
And Ive added libsnappy.so.1 to $HADOOP_HOME/lib/native/Linux-amd64-64/
Still, all map tasks fail with "native snappy library not available". Could anyone elaborate on how to install Snappy for Hadoop ?
