1、在window操作系统上，使用eclipse开发工具从hdfs分布式文件系统上下载文件报空指针异常解决方法：
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.hadoop.metrics2.lib.MutableMetricsFactory).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.

2、将hadoop-2.5.0-cdh5.3.6.tar.gz文件在window操作系统解压缩，配置好环境变量。
然后验证一下是否配置成功，操作如window+R，输入cmd：
然后将如下所示的文件hadoop-common-2.2.0-bin-32.rar解压缩，然后全部复制放到hadoop-2.5.0-cdh5.3.6.tar.gz的bin目录下面即可：
最后重启电脑，运行下载程序，解决问题，或者在程序中配置如下所示内容：
System.setProperty("hadoop.home.dir","D:/biexiansheng/hadoop/hadoop-2.5.0-cdh5.3.6");
/***
* 获取到配置信息
* @return
*/
public static Configuration getConfiguration(){
Configuration conf = new Configuration();
conf.set("fs.defaultFS", "hdfs://192.168.19.131:9000");
//重启机器或者设置这个值
//System.setProperty("hadoop.home.dir","D:/biexiansheng/hadoop/hadoop-2.5.0-cdh5.3.6");
return conf;
}
