    <p>I have a sample code that connects to HBase from R using RHBase (RHadoop suite). It works in one environment, does not in another.</p> <hr> <p>Code:</p> <pre><code># Location and port of the thrift server hostLoc = '172.25.1.16' port = 9090 require(rhbase) #create new table with columns x,y and z hb.new.table("mytable", "x","y","z",opts=list(y=list(compression='GZ'))) #insert some values into the table hb.insert("mytable",list( list(10,c("x","y","z"),list("apple","berry","cherry")))) hb.insert("mytable",list( list(20,c("x","y","z"),list(10001,14,575)))) hb.insert("mytable",list( list(30,c("x","y","z"),list("a string",1000.23,FALSE)))) </code></pre> <hr> <p>This is fairly simple code, I wrote this to replicate this error.</p> <p>Environment 1:</p> <p>Ubuntu 12.04 LTS R: 3.0 Thrift 0.9.0 Java (if needed): OpenJDK 1.6</p> <p>==> This code works fine on this environment. It is my local machine.</p> <p>Environment 2 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS R: 2.15.2 Thrift 0.9.0 Java (if needed): Oracle Java 1.7</p> <p>==> This is a remote machine. It throws the following error:</p> <pre><code>Error in hb.insert("mytable", list(list(10, c("x", "y", "z"), list("apple", : RAW() can only be applied to a 'raw', not a 'character' </code></pre> <p>I am connecting to HBase (0.94.7) on a remote location in both instances.</p> <p>Any ideas as to what is causing this problem? I'm fairly new to Hbase and the RHadoop suite, please do forgive any naive questions! Also, please do tell me if any additional info is needed.</p> <p>Edit: I have a standalone instance of HBase- not the cloudera distribution. I built thrift from the source as required by RHbase</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
