Looks like your poor old mapreduce job failed when it tried to write a record to hbase. Looking at the master log, whats odd is that the catalog .META. table has no mention of the 'triples' table. Its been created? (It may not be showing because you are not running with logging at DEBUG level. As of yesterday or so you can set DEBUG level from the UI by browsing to 'Log Level' servlet at http://MASTER_HOST:PORT -- usually http://localhost:60000/ -- and set the package 'org.apache.hadoop.hbase' to DEBUG). But then you OOME. You might try outputting back to local filesystem rather than to HDFS -- use something like TextOutputFormat instead of TableOutputFormat. If that works, then there is an issue w/ writing output to hbase. Please open a JIRA, paste your MR program and lets figure a way to get the data file across. Thanks for your patience H, St.Ack
