Re: IllegalStateException: Job tracker still initializing

Update: Deleting the jobXXXX.tmp directory of the failed job on the dfs 
resolves the issue.

Hi,

Using hadoop 0.17.1, we see this exception consistently after one job has run
and the dfs has been restarted. Unless we delete the dfs/data dir and reformat
the namenode, the start of a new job seems to be blocked by this exception. Is
there a workaround? Thanks
