[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-476?page=comments#action_12455355 ] Sanjay Dahiya commented on HADOOP-476: --------------------------------------
Moved input path ( glob pattern ) checks and errors to JobClient as part of HADOOP-619 and removed from streaming. Also job client converts the patterns into actual files and writes back to jobconf . InputFormatBase is changed to accept files as input also. Will submit the patch in a while. comments ? > Streaming should check for correctness of the task > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-476 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-476 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: contrib/streaming > Reporter: arkady borkovsky > Assigned To: Sanjay Dahiya > > Currently, if anythin is wrong with streaming job, it dies without any > explanation. > Before creating and running actual MapReduce job, Streaming should check if: > -- the executables (or scripts) for -mapper and -reducer are available and > have right permissions > -- the input fragments exist -- 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
