    The error is because the jar file being referred in the command (/home/ila/hadoop-0.20.1-examples.jar) in NOT present. Its clear that you are using hadoop-0.22.0 and that wont have hadoop-0.20.1-examples.jar shipped along with it.

    Try to find the hadoop-*-examples jar in the hadoop installation directory and use that in the command. That should solve the issue. Typically it will be named as hadoop-0.22.0-examples.jar as the jar naming is related to the hadoop version.
