> I'm calling the write() method of AvroMultipleOutputs which takes the 
> baseOutputPath.  The reducer appears to begin hanging once it tries writing 
> to a baseOuputPath value not already encountered.  It then fails with:
> org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RemoteException: 
> org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.protocol.AlreadyBeingCreatedException: failed to 
> create file ... because current leaseholder is trying to recreate file.
> I think the problem has to do with this line in AvroMultipleOutputs:
> {code}
> // get the record writer from context output format
> //FileOutputFormat.setOutputName(taskContext, baseFileName);
> {code}
> This line is not commented out in the similar code from Hadoop.  So I think 
> the baseOutputPath is ignored.  As a result when each record writer is 
> created it uses the same path, leading to the exception.
> Uncommenting this line does not work because of visibility of the method.  
> However what this method does is set "mapreduce.output.basename".  But 
> setting this doesn't work either.  
> After digging through Avro code I found that AvroOutputFormatBase is using 
> "avro.mo.config.namedOutput" to create the path.  If I replace the commented 
> out line with this it seems to work:
> {code}
> taskContext.getConfiguration().set("avro.mo.config.namedOutput", 
> baseFileName);  
> {code}
