Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-1587:
-------------------------------------
I could not reproduce this problem with the current trunk. Could you pls try to
do the same with the current trunk?
> Tasks run by MiniMRCluster don't get sysprops from TestCases
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-1587
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1587
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: test
> Environment: unix
> Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
> Priority: Blocker
>
> While it seems a general problem it is surfacing in streaming TestSymLink
> testcase with patch for HADOOP-1558
> The contrib testcases use src/contrib/test/hadoop-site.xml.
> The property 'mapred.system.dir' is this file is defined as with a variable
> '${contrib.name}'.
> The src/build/build-contrib.xml ant file sets the sysproperty 'contrib.name'
> to the name of the contrib component for the JVM running the testcase.
> The problem is that when a testcase uses MiniMRCluster the TaskRunner forks a
> JVM for the task and in this JVM (which uses the above hadoop-site.xml) the
> variable 'contrib.name' is undefined.
> If I hardcode 'streaming' in the hadoop-site.xml for the TestSymLink the
> testcase works fine.
