We will get latest version of Apache Flume here :

Vim
1
http://archive.apache.org/dist/flume/

I am providing commands for overview of total project, you need not to run commands for Hadoop, JDK if already installed :

Vim
1
2
3
apt update
apt upgrade
apt install openjdk-7-jdk

Now we need to create Flume’s directory and change the ownership and permissions of the directory :

Vim
1
2
3
mkdir -p /usr/local/flume
sudo chown -R hduser /usr/local/flume
sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/local/flume

If you have downloaded Apache Flume tar.gz file is in /home/hduser/downloads directory, then :

Vim
1
2
3
cd /home/hduser/downloads
tar -xzvf apache-flume-1.8.0-bin.tar.gz
mv apache-flume-1.8.0-bin/* /usr/local/flume

Now, edit $HOME/.bashrc file :

Vim
1
2
3
4
5
6
nano $HOME/.bashrc
## Add the below lines
export FLUME_HOME=/usr/local/flume
export FLUME_CONF_DIR=$FLUME_HOME/conf
export FLUME_CLASSPATH=$FLUME_CONF_DIR
export PATH=$PATH:$FLUME_HOME/bin

Reload .bashrc :

Vim
1
source $HOME/.bashrc

Now, navigate to /usr/local/flume/conf :

Vim
1
2
3
4
cd $FLUME_HOME/conf
ls -al
cp flume-env.sh.template flume-env.sh
nano flume-env.sh

Add java path to flume-env.sh :

Vim
1
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64

Change the path according to your version. Now copy flume-conf.properties.template to flume-conf.properties :

Vim
1
2
3
cp flume-conf.properties.template flume-conf.properties
# cd to /usr/local/flume/bin
cd $FLUME_HOME/bin

We can verify Installation with this command :

Vim
1
./flume-ng version

Of course it is easy just because it is part of bigger plan.
