Enabling it...");                        admin.enableTable(TableName.valueOf(tableName );                    }                    HBaseHelper.truncateTable(tableName);                }            }            catch (IOException e) {                System.out.print("Failed to truncate table " + tableName + "\nError Msg: " + e.getMessage());            }        }    } catch (Exception e){        System.out.print("Could not connect to HBase Admin.
