Errors encountered in MROutputThread after the last map/reduce call can go 
undetected
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-5746
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5746
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: contrib/streaming
            Reporter: Devaraj Das
             Fix For: 0.21.0


The framework map/reduce bridge methods make a check at the beginning of the 
respective methods whether _MROutputThread_ encountered an exception while 
writing keys/values that the streaming process emitted. However, if the 
exception happens in _MROutputThread_ after the last call to the map/reduce 
method, the exception goes undetected. An example of such an exception is an 
exception from the _DFSClient_ that fails to write to a file on the HDFS.
