Exception in thread "main" java.lang.VerifyError: Bad type on operand stack

java hadoop mapreduce

Please try to lower the JDK version to 7.And download the JDK from oracle site.

I could solve the problem with JDK 7.

java hadoop mapreduce

It's basically a type mismatch on the JVM execution stack.

Definitely a bug in Hadoop.
