After HADOOP-5420, tasks hang when the taskcontroller.cfg has multiple entries for mapred.local.dir ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-6027 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6027 Project: Hadoop Core Issue Type: Bug Components: mapred Reporter: Vinod K V HADOOP-5420 refactored code from taskcontroller.c -> check_tt_root() to configuration.c for reuse. While doing this, this bug got introduced because of which all tasks hang when a cluster is configured with multiple mapred local directories. This happens because of the latest code in check_tt_root() which never advances the mapred_local_dir pointer and gets stuck in an infinite loop. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
