Robert Kanter commented on HADOOP-15717:
----------------------------------------

Good catch [~snemeth].

[~xiaochen], logging the {{Throwable}} only works if you don't use the varargs 
logging method.  Java requires that varargs is always last, so you can't have 
something like {{foo(String message, String... args, Throwable t)}}.  Doing 
that in the logging framework compiles because the varargs are of type 
{{Object}}, so the Throwable is simply included with those, but because we 
don't have as many parameters in the message, it just gets ignored.  

This would explain why we appear to have a log message that prints the stack 
trace in the code, but it's not seen in the actual log.  Using 
{{String.format}} seems like an easy way to fix this, and I'm pretty sure I've 
seen us do that elsewhere.

+1 LGTM
Does that make sense to you [~xiaochen]?

> I came across a case where tgt.getEndTime() was returned null and it resulted 
> in an NPE, this observation was popped out of a test suite execution on a 
> cluster. The reason for logging the {{IOException}} is that it helps to 
> troubleshoot what caused the exception, as it can come from two different 
> calls from the try-catch.
> I can see that [~gabor.bota] handled this with HADOOP-15593, but apart from 
> logging the fact that the ticket's {{endDate}} was null, we have not logged 
> the exception at all.
> With the current code, the exception is swallowed and the thread terminates 
> in case the ticket's {{endDate}} is null. 
> As this can happen with OpenJDK for example, it is required to print the 
> exception (stack trace, message) to the log.
> The code should be updated here:
