error in streaming twitter data to Hadoop using flume - hadoop

Question

I am using Hadoop-1.2.1 on Ubuntu 14.04
I am trying to stream data from twitter to HDFS by using Flume-1.6.0. I have downloaded flume-sources-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar and included it in flume/lib folder. I have set path of flume-sources-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar as FLUME_CLASSPATH in conf/flume-env.sh . This is my flume agent conf file:
#setting properties of agent
Twitter-agent.sources=source1
Twitter-agent.channels=channel1
Twitter-agent.sinks=sink1
#configuring sources
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.type=com.cloudera.flume.source.TwitterSource
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.channels=channel1
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.consumerKey=<consumer-key>
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.consumerSecret=<consumer Secret>
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.accessToken=<access Toekn>
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.accessTokenSecret=<acess Token Secret>
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.keywords= morning, night, hadoop, bigdata
#configuring channels
Twitter-agent.channels.channel1.type=memory
Twitter-agent.channels.channel1.capacity=10000
Twitter-agent.channels.channel1.transactionCapacity=100
#configuring sinks
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.channel=channel1
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.type=hdfs
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.hdfs.path=flume/twitter/logs
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.rollSize=0
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.rollCount=1000
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.batchSize=100
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.fileType=DataStream
Twitter-agent.sinks.sink1.writeFormat=Text
when I run this agent, I am getting an error like this:

My flume/lib folder already has twitter4j-core-3.0.3.jar
How do I rectify this error?

Answer 1

I found a solution to this issue. As flume-sources-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar and twitter4j-stream-3.0.3.jar contains the same FilterQuery.class, there arises a jar conflict. All twitter4j-3.x.x uses this class so it would be better to download twitter jars of version 2.2.6(twitter4j-core,twitter4j-stream,twitter4j-media-support) and replace 3.x.x with these newly downloaded jars under flume/lib directory.
Run the agent again and twitter data will be streamed to HDFS.

Answer 2

Change
Twitter-agent.sources.source1.type=com.cloudera.flume.source.TwitterSource
with
TwitterAgent.sources.Twitter.type = org.apache.flume.source.twitter.TwitterSource
