Daniel Dai commented on PIG-2578:
---------------------------------

There two folds of this issue:
1. I found one bug in Pig which we didn't make a copy of hadoop configuration 
before invoking various StoreFunc hooks. This is more obvious under hadoop 23 
for HCat when hadoop need "mapred.output.dir" in OutputCommitter to move 
promote output.
2. There is also a fix on HCat side. setStoreLocation suppose to set up the 
right "mapred.output.dir"
                
> Multiple Store-commands mess up mapred.output.dir.

> When one runs a pig-script with multiple storers, one sees the following:
> 1. When run as a script, Pig launches a single job.
> 2. PigOutputCommitter::setupJob() calls the 
> underlyingOutputCommitter::setupJob(), once for each storer. But the 
> mapred.output.dir is the same for both calls, even though the storers write 
> to different locations. 
> This was originally seen in HCATALOG-276, when HCatalog's end-to-end tests 
> are run against Pig.
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-276)
> Sample pig-script (near identical to HCatalog's Pig_Checkin_4 test):
> a = load 'keyvals' using org.apache.hcatalog.pig.HCatLoader();
> split a into b if key<200, c if key >=200;
> store b into 'keyvals_lt200' using org.apache.hcatalog.pig.HCatStorer();
> store c into 'keyvals_ge200' using org.apache.hcatalog.pig.HCatStorer();
> I've suggested a workaround in HCat for the time being, but I think this 
> might be something that needs fixing in Pig.
> Thanks.
