Owen O'Malley resolved HADOOP-528. ---------------------------------- Resolution: Cannot Reproduce Assignee: (was: Owen O'Malley) I haven't seen this recently and I suspect it was the race condition in creating the directories that we used to have with mkdirs calling exists and then mkdir. > Some hadoop distcp task fails with dfs.client.buffer.dir not found error > while the property exists. > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-528 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-528 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.6.0 > Reporter: Sanjay Dahiya > > On some nodes hadoop distcp fails with folowing error. The property > dfs.client.buffer.dir is defined in hadoop-site.xml and the corresponding > directory is also created on the node by framework. Same configuration works > on all other nodes. > It could be a timing issue where someone is trying to read the dir before its > created on local disk, I am not sure of the cause. > java.io.IOException: No valid local directories in property: > dfs.client.buffer.dir at > org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration.getFile(Configuration.java:405) at > org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DFSClient$DFSOutputStream.newBackupFile(DFSClient.java:780) > at org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DFSClient$DFSOutputStream.(DFSClient.java:770) at > org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DFSClient.create(DFSClient.java:276) at > org.apache.hadoop.dfs.DistributedFileSystem.createRaw(DistributedFileSystem.java:104) > at > org.apache.hadoop.fs.FSDataOutputStream$Summer.(FSDataOutputStream.java:56) > at > org.apache.hadoop.fs.FSDataOutputStream$Summer.(FSDataOutputStream.java:45) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FSDataOutputStream.(FSDataOutputStream.java:146) at > org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.create(FileSystem.java:270) at > org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.create(FileSystem.java:177) at > org.apache.hadoop.util.CopyFiles$DFSCopyFilesMapper.copy(CopyFiles.java:186) > at > org.apache.hadoop.util.CopyFiles$DFSCopyFilesMapper.map(CopyFiles.java:391) > at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:46) at > org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:210) at > org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker$Child.main(TaskTracker.java:1066) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
