> When running a jar with hadoop jar, e.g. when submitting using gcloud 
> dataproc jobs submit hadoop, a JAR with a non-static main gives a cryptic 
> error message that could be clearer. The current error message in Hadoop 
> 2.9.2 looks like:
> {code:java}
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
>   at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
>   at 
> sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) 
>   at 
> sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43)
>   at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498)
>   at org.apache.hadoop.util.RunJar.run(RunJar.java:244)
>   at org.apache.hadoop.util.RunJar.main(RunJar.java:158)
>   at 
> com.google.cloud.hadoop.services.agent.job.shim.HadoopRunJarShim.main(HadoopRunJarShim.java:12)
> {code}
> Instead, it would be more helpful to show an error message like "Method main 
> must be static: foo.bar.BazMR".
