Oozie Java Action - Hbase : Error

[#1]

I'm running a test hbase java program via oozie java action. The following error is encountered :

Error, 
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/hadoop/hbase/HBaseConfiguration

The program runs correctly from command line :

java -cp `hbase classpath` personal_project.HBaseConnector

Is there a way I can pass output of 'hbase classpath' to the oozie java action. I have copied below hbase jars to workflow's lib directory as well.

• hbase-common-$HBASE_VERSION.jar
• hbase-client-$HBASE_VERSION.jar
• hbase-server-$HBASE_VERSION.jar
• hbase-protocol-$HBASE_VERSION.jar
• hbase-hadoop2-compat-$HBASE_VERSION.jar
• htrace-core-*.jar
• hive-hbase-handler-$HBASE_VERSION.jar

Following is the java action from workflow.xml :

@Padmanabhan Vijendran Check if ozzie shared lib is configured properly and has right hbase dependencies. If not properly configured you can recreate shared lib using below commands:

/usr/hdp/current/oozie/bin/oozie-setup.sh sharelib create -locallib /usr/hdp/<version>/oozie/oozie-sharelib.tar.gz -fs hdfs://<namenode-host>:8020

oozie admin -oozie http://<oozie-host>:11000/oozie -sharelibupdate

@Ajay I am not an admin to do this. I believe sharelib is properly set. Hive Actions are running fine.

Adding the below Credential properties fixed my issue.
