Travis Thompson commented on MAPREDUCE-5792:
--------------------------------------------
So I didn't have {{yarn.log.server.url}} set, and after setting that log
redirection off the NM works, yay. It would still be nice to have a more
meaningful message make it back to the RM though, because right now you have to
go to the GUI to find the error message, the console just shows the generic
shell exception message.

> When permissions are corrected on this dir, applications are able to run.
> There should probably be some sort of check on this dir before launching the
> AM so a more meaningful error message can be thrown.
