I am unable to restart NIFI on HDF 3, getting following error

Have you added anything to NiFI's lib directory?

This looks like the classpath is messed up.

I added phoenix-client.jar to the nifi/lib folder, i moved it out and able to start nifi now.

Thanks

Sounds good, there is a property in the HBase Client Service where you can specify the location of phoenix-client.jar so it can be located outside NiFi's lib dir.
