Answer 1

I think your environment is missing FINDBUGS_HOME. You can download and install findbugs from here.
After that, you should run following to define FINDBUGS_HOME:
export FINDBUGS_HOME=/path/to/findbugs/installation
Now, your build should not fail due to missing FINDBUGS_HOME environment variable.

Answer 2

I have solved by following commands:
mvn clean
mvn compile -Pnative
mvn package
mvn compile findbugs:findbugs
mvn install
mvn package -Pdist,docs,src,native -Dtar

Answer 3

I fixed this issue using these steps.
1) open the pom.xml file inside the hadoop-xxxxx-src/hadoop-project directory and search for the "findbugs.version" xml tag
2) download and install the required findbugs version you found in Step 1)
3) create the "FINDBUGS_HOME" environment variable as suggested by others.

Answer 4

For an updated answer, my colleague published an article on how to compile, patch and run hadoop with the latest source code: https://www.adaltas.com/en/2020/08/04/installing-hadoop-from-source/. It makes use of Docker for reproducible builds.
