Task Tracker does not handle the case of read only local dir case correctly ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-308 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-308 Project: Hadoop Type: Bug Versions: 0.3.2 Environment: all Reporter: Runping Qi In case that the local dir is not writable on a node, the tasks on the node will fail as expected, with an exception like: (Read-only file system) at java.io.FileOutputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileOutputStream.(FileOutputStream.java:179) at java.io.FileOutputStream.(FileOutputStream.java:131) at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DFSClient$DFSOutputStream.(DFSClient.java:723) at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DFSClient.create(DFSClient.java:241) at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DistributedFileSystem.createRaw(DistributedFileSystem.java:96) at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FSDataOutputStream$Summer.(FSDataOutputStream.java:44) at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FSDataOutputStream.(FSDataOutputStream.java:134) at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.create(FileSystem.java:224) at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.create(FileSystem.java:176) .... at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask.run(ReduceTask.java:265) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker$Child.main(TaskTracker.java:847) However, the task tracker will continue accept new tasks and continue to fail. The runloop of tasktracker should detect such a problem and exits. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
