Amar Kamat commented on HADOOP-2838: ------------------------------------ bq. Stumbled on this patch.. what happens if the value of mapred.child.env does not have a well formed string - like doesn't have "key=value" but only key ? Has this been taken care of ? TaskRunner will fail in child launch leading to task failure ultimately leading to job failure. I see it as something similar to bad mapred code. > Add HADOOP_LIBRARY_PATH config setting so Hadoop will include external > directories for jni > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-2838 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2838 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.16.0 > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Amar Kamat > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-2838-v1.0.patch, HADOOP-2838-v1.1.patch, > HADOOP-2838-v2.2-branch-20-example.patch, HADOOP-2838-v2.2.patch > > > Currently there is no way to configure Hadoop to use external JNI > directories.
