1. 启动Flume，出现脚本错误
错误如下：
bin/flume-ng: line 82: syntax error in conditional expression: unexpected token `('
bin/flume-ng: line 82: syntax error near `^java.library.path=(.'
bin/flume-ng: line 82: ` if [[ $line =~ ^java.library.path=(.*)$ ]]; then'
将字符串的引用，加上双引号即可。如if [[ “$line” =~ “^java.library.path=(.*)$” ]]; then 。
flume-ng中有82、105、154行需要修改
2. flume sink 对接hdfs

它通过hadoop命令,自动去找到了hadoop的所有jra包并添加到了自己的classpath里面,所以就不存在这个错了.
那它到底依赖哪些jar包呢? 我也是快崩溃了,一个一个的找,一个一个的试,最终试出来了结果.
其实报错的那个类,在hadoop2的时候,是在hadoop-common当中. hadoop 1的话,应该是在hadoop-core中.
首先把这个hadoop-common包拷贝到flume的lib目录里面.
总结一下,安装完flume之后,需要从hadoop中拷贝过来的jar包有以下
commons-configuration-1.6.jar hadoop-auth-2.5.2.jar hadoop-common-2.5.2.jar hadoop-hdfs-2.5.2.jar hadoop-mapreduce-client-core-2.5.2.jar
