Attila Pados commented on MAPREDUCE-5655:
-----------------------------------------
the vice versa case: linux client, windows cluster is not handled by this patch
> Remote job submit from windows to a linux hadoop cluster fails due to wrong
> classpath

> Key: MAPREDUCE-5655
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5655
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: client, job submission
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Environment: Client machine is a Windows 7 box, with Eclipse
> Remote: there is a multi node hadoop cluster, installed on Ubuntu boxes (any
> linux)
> Reporter: Attila Pados
> Attachments: MRApps.patch, YARNRunner.patch
>
>
> I was trying to run a java class on my client, windows 7 developer
> environment, which submits a job to the remote Hadoop cluster, initiates a
> mapreduce there, and then downloads the results back to the local machine.
> General use case is to use hadoop services from a web application installed
> on a non-cluster computer, or as part of a developer environment.
> The problem was, that the ApplicationMaster's startup shell script
> (launch_container.sh) was generated with wrong CLASSPATH entry. Together with
> the java process call on the bottom of the file, these entries were generated
> in windows style, using % as shell variable marker and ; as the CLASSPATH
> delimiter.
> I tracked down the root cause, and found that the MrApps.java, and the
> YarnRunner.java classes create these entries, and is passed forward to the
> ApplicationMaster, assuming that the OS that runs these classes will match
> the one running the ApplicationMaster. But it's not the case, these are in 2
> different jvm, and also the OS can be different, the strings are generated
> based on the client/submitter side's OS.
> I made some workaround changes to these 2 files, so i could launch my job,
> however there may be more problems ahead.
