I am trying to get pig started and failing:

Searching on "Server IPC version 7 cannot communicate with client version 4" doesn't turn up anything useful.
Answer
Set HADOOP_HOME to point to the hadoop you are using.
From the pig getting started page:
(You can run Pig with different versions of Hadoop by setting HADOOP_HOME to point to the directory where you have installed Hadoop. If you do not set HADOOP_HOME, by default Pig will run with the embedded version, currently Hadoop 1.0.0.)
IPC version 4 is for Hadoop 1.0, whereas version 7 is for Hadoop 2.0, so it sounds like you're running pig with its embedded hadoop version but trying to talk to a Hadoop 2 cluster.
