Robert Joseph Evans commented on HADOOP-8661:
---------------------------------------------
Glad to see OOZIE-946. Virag, is it OK for us to drop the severity on
HADOOP-8661 given OOZIE-946?
I did read through HADOOP-6686 and the reason for including the entire stack
trace is to improve debugging, which is obviously something we want. Most
exceptions do not have a complete stack trace in their message though. That is
what getStackTrace() is for.
I have spent a little time to write some code that can parse the stack trace
and insert it back into the generated exception. I think this is the cleaner
way to get the debugging, and keep the generated massage almost identical to
the original message. I wanted to know what others thought about the
suggestion. I am fine with dropping it if OOZIE-946 is sufficient. I need some
time to clean up the code a bit and add some more tests to be sure everything
works OK even in error cases, but I don't want to spend much time on it if this
is going to be contentious.

> It looks like all exceptions produced by RemoteException include the full
> stack trace of the original exception in the message. This is causing issues
> for oozie because they store the message in their database and it is getting
> very large. This appears to be a regression from 1.0 behavior.
