1，参考http://blog.csdn.net/ningguixin/article/details/7728264网址中内容

hadoop-0.21.0 配置好1.core-site.xml 2.hdfs-site.xml 3.mapred-site.xml 格式化namenode 报错

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/namenode/NameNode
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NameNode

解决办法：修改 conf/hadoop-env.sh，增加
                  export HADOOP_COMMON_HOME=/usr/hadoop/hadoop （hadoop的安装目录) 

本地配置文件修改如下：

export JAVA_HOME=/home/lester/develop/jdk1.6.0_37
export HADOOP_COMMON_HOME=/home/lester/develop/hadoop-1.1.0

修改如上配置重新执行后，问题依然存在。

2，修改环境变量，有可能是profile文件中的CLASSPATH导致

lester@lester-ThinkPad-T410:~/develop/hadoop-1.1.0/conf$ sudo vim /etc/profile

#set Java Environment
export JAVA_HOME=/home/lester/develop/jdk1.6.0_37
export HADOOP_HOME=/home/lester/develop/hadoop-1.1.0
#export CLASSPATH=".:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$CLASSPATH"
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$HADOOP_HOME/bin
export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:.:$JAVA_HOME/lib

经过以上修改后，问题依然存在

3，修改输入命令参数后，问题解决，参考自：http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2004786/error-in-starting-namenode-in-hadoop

bin/hadoop namenode -format

it's the same case of me.i slove the problem.

important thing is blank.

bin/hadoop namenode-format is incorrectbin/hadoop namenode- format is correct.

simple. try again.

也就是说输入的命令参数有误，如：

lester@lester-ThinkPad-T410:~/develop/hadoop-1.1.0/bin$ ./hadoop namenode -format
