----------------------------------------

             Summary: MapReduce doesn't set the environment variable for 
children processes
                 Key: MAPREDUCE-5490
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5490
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.2.1
            Reporter: Owen O'Malley
            Assignee: Owen O'Malley


Currently, MapReduce uses the command line argument to pass the classpath to 
the child. This breaks if the process forks a child that needs the same 
classpath. Such a case happens in Hive when it uses map-side joins. I propose 
that we make MapReduce in branch-1 use the CLASSPATH environment variable like 
YARN does.
