    Description

      I am creating a set of scripts that will automatically install Flume and all of its dependencies. These scripts end up installing Java from a tar archive and do not place Java on the environment's PATH. I am encountering a problem in the bin/flume script with the following line:

      exec $NODE_WATCHDOG java $JOPTS $UOPTS com.cloudera.flume.agent.FlumeNode "$@"

      This command assumes that Java is set in the $PATH variable despite the existence of $JAVA_HOME. The bin/flume script should be updated to not rely on Java being placed in the PATH environment variable:

      exec $NODE_WATCHDOG $JAVA_HOME/bin/java $JOPTS $UOPTS com.cloudera.flume.agent.FlumeNode "$@"
