[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-705?page=all ]
Doug Cutting updated HADOOP-705: -------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) Wouldn't it be better to remove the job's entire directory at the outset? That would cover failures in both job.xml, job.jar and whatever else ends up there. Also, this patch uses tabs to indent, rather than spaces, with non-standard tab stops. And there's a typo in the comment. > IOException: job.xml already exists > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-705 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-705 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Nigel Daley > Assigned To: Mahadev konar > Attachments: jobxml.patch > > > I'm seeing this exception in the JobTracker log.
