title: First hadoop project error: "Input path does not exist"
body: <p>To setup a simple hadoop project I'm following this tutorial : <a href="http://ebiquity.umbc.edu/Tutorials/Hadoop/23%20-%20create%20the%20project.html" rel="noreferrer">http://ebiquity.umbc.edu/Tutorials/Hadoop/23%20-%20create%20the%20project.html</a></p>
  
  <p>My hadoop single node seems to be running correctly.</p>
  
  <p>When I specify the <code>In</code> folder using this code :</p>
  
  <pre><code>FileInputFormat.setInputPaths(conf, new Path("In"));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I receive this error: </p>
  
  <pre><code>13/03/03 22:05:27 ERROR security.UserGroupInformation: PriviledgedActionException as:DEVUSER cause:org.apache.hadoop.mapred.InvalidInputException: Input path does not exist: hdfs://localhost:9100/user/DEVUSER/In
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Currently the <code>In</code> folder is created at <code>C:\homedir\hadoop-1.0.4\In</code></p>
  
  <p>Where do I need to create the "In" folder so that it appears in <code>hdfs://localhost:9100/user/DEVUSER/In</code>? Do I need to update an xml file to point to a folder on my local file system?</p>
