I am providing more information.

I downloaded Social Media Connector. I unzipped it and copied all 3rd party software under thrirdparty/dist. Then ran make flume. I get following errors.

[root@vertica Social-Media-Connector-master]# make flume
mkdir -p build/classes
touch build/.done
readlink: extra operand 'Pulse/Social'
Try 'readlink --help' for more information.
mkdir -p dist
cd dist && tar xvf 
tar: Old option 'f' requires an argument.
Try 'tar --help' or 'tar --usage' for more information.
make: *** [/home/dbadmin/Vertica] Error 2

Hi Muthu,

Unfortunately, I can't comment on the above, but there are a couple of places for help with Social Media Connector installation:

1. On Github, see the Readme file
2. In the HP Vertica Pulse download, there is a 'visualization example' directory.  That directory has a 'quick start' guide that contains instructions for setting up the social media connector.

Hope this helps.
