Github user kr-arjun commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/drill/pull/1011 @paul-rogers I was able to resolve this issue by workaround of setting 'yarn.timeline-service.enabled' to false ( Copied yarn-site.xml with this property set to $DRILL_SITE directory). This issue is specific to environment where Timeline server is enabled. Initially , it failed with 'java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sun/jersey/api/client/config/ClientConfig'. On copying required jars to Drill classpath , it failed with exception I have shared in the previous attachment. The same issue is reported in Spark as well (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-15343). To find the error stack trace, I had to modify the DrillOnYarn.java to print StackTrace. Thought it would be useful if stack trace can be logged for troubleshooting purpose.
