Installing cloudera manager on arch linux

Has anybody ever tried to install Cloudera Manager on arch? I do atm, but with no success. I need java jdbc for a script that sets up the databases (mariadb-jdbc - AUR), but the java programs cant find the jdbc driver. I tried to set the CLASSPATH variable but that did not work either... Hopefully somebody accomplished this.

EDIT: Just found out why: Please note that the driver class provided by MariaDB Connector/J is not com.mysql.jdbc.Driver but org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver! Is mysql-jdbc compatible with mariaDB?

Should be compatible but not 100% sure, I'd say go ahead and test

Re: Installing cloudera manager on arch linux

Okay my initial idea was to work locally with impala, since I dont have access to our cluster (yet). But installing CM on arch makes no sense, since it is a server software system. mysql-jdbc is compatible with mariaDB, but the sources are heavily tailored for just a handful of, mainly enterprise distributions. It may be feasable, but after two days of frickling and patching, I decided that I dont want to spend time deploying and maintaining CM and to use the cloudera live vm.
