Ryan Blue updated AVRO-1786:
----------------------------
    Description: 
Our production cluster is CENTOS 6.5 (2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64), running IBM 
BigInsight V3.0.0.2. In Apache term, it is Hadoop 2.2.0 with MRV1(no yarn), and 
comes with AVRO 1.7.4, running with IBM J9 VM (build 2.7, JRE 1.7.0 Linux 
amd64-64 Compressed References 20140515_199835 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled). Not 
sure if the JDK matters, but it is NOT Oracle JVM.

We have a ETL implemented in a chain of MR jobs. In one MR job, it is going to 
merge 2 sets of AVRO data. Dataset1 is in HDFS location A, and Dataset2 is in 
HDFS location B, and both contains the AVRO records binding to the same AVRO 
schema. The record contains an unique id field, and a timestamp field. The MR 
job is to merge the records based on the ID, and use the later timestamp record 
to replace previous timestamp record, and omit the final AVRO record out. Very 
straightforward.

Now we faced a problem that one reducer keeps failing with the following 
stacktrace on JobTracker:

Here is the my Mapper and Reducer methods:
Mapper:
public void map(AvroKey<SpecificRecord> key, NullWritable value, Context 
context) throws IOException, InterruptedException 
Reducer:
protected void reduce(CustomPartitionKeyClass key, 
Iterable<AvroValue<SpecificRecord>> values, Context context) throws 
IOException, InterruptedException 

What bother me are the following facts:
1) All the mappers finish without error
2) Most of the reducers finish without error, but one reducer keeps failing 
with the above error.
3) It looks like caused by the data? But keep in mind that all the avro records 
passed the mapper side, but failed in one reducer. 
4) From the stacktrace, it looks like our reducer code was NOT invoked yet, but 
failed before that. So my guess is that all the AVRO records pass through the 
mapper side, but AVRO complains the intermediate result generated by the one 
mapper? In my understanding, that will be a Sequence file generated by Hadoop, 
and value part will be the AVRO bytes. Is the above error meaning that AVRO 
cannot deserialize the value part from the sequence file?
5) Our ETL run fine for more than one year, but suddenly got this error 
starting from one day, and kept getting this problem after that. 
6) If it helps, here is the schema for the avro record:

{code}
{
    "namespace" : "company name",
    "type" : "record",
    "name" : "Lists",
    "fields" : [
        {"name" : "account_id", "type" : "long"},
        {"name" : "list_id", "type" : "string"},
        {"name" : "sequence_id", "type" : ["int", "null"]} ,
        {"name" : "name", "type" : ["string", "null"]},
        {"name" : "state", "type" : ["string", "null"]},
        {"name" : "description", "type" : ["string", "null"]},

        {"name" : "delta", "type" : ["boolean", "null"]},
        {
            "name" : "list_memberships", "type" : {
                "type" : "array", "items" : {
                    "name" : "ListMembership", "type" : "record",
                    "fields" : [
                        {"name" : "channel_id", "type" : "string"},
                        {"name" : "created_at", "type" : ["long", "null"]},
                        {"name" : "created_source", "type" : ["string", 
"null"]},
                        {"name" : "deleted_at", "type" : ["long", "null"]},
                        {"name" : "sequence_id", "type" : ["long", "null"]}
                    ]
                }
            }
        }
