Hello,

Thanks everyone for helping me. Here are my observations:

Devaraj - I didn't find any bug in the log files. In fact, none of the
print statements in my reducer are even appearing in the logs. I can
share the syslogs if you want. I didn't paste them here so that the
email doesn't get cluttered.

Kasi -  Thanks for the suggestion. I tired but got the same output.
The system just created 1 reducer as my test data set is small.

Bejoy -  Can you please advice how I can pinpoint whether the
IdentityReducer is being used or not.

Steven - I tried compiling with your suggestion. However if I put a
@Override on top of my reduce method, I get the following error:
"method does not override or implement a method from a supertype"
The code compiles without it. I do have an @Override on top of my map
method though.
public class Reduce_First extends Reducer<IntWritable, Text,
NullWritable, Text>
{
     public void reduce (IntWritable key, Iterator<Text>  values,
Context context) throws IOException, InterruptedException
     {
         while ( values.hasNext() )
                // Process

         // Finally emit
     }
}

Thanks a lot again!
Warm regards
Arko

Try putting @Override before your reduce method to make sure you're
overriding the method properly. You’ll get a compile time error if not.

Hi Akro
 From the naming of output files, your job has the reduce phase. But the
reducer being used is the IdentityReducer instead of your custom reducer.
That is the reason you are seeing the same map output in the output files as
well. You need to evaluate your code and logs to see why IdentityReducer is
being triggered.

Could you comment the property where you are setting the number of reducer
tasks and see the behaviour of the program once.
If you already tried could you share the output

Can you check the task attempt logs in your cluster and find out what is
happening in the reduce phase. By default task attempt logs present in
$HADOOP_LOG_DIR/userlogs/<job-id>/. There could be some bug exist in your
reducer which is leading to this output.


Thanks
Devaraj

Hello,

Many thanks for the reply.

The 'no_of_reduce_tasks' is set to 2. I have a print statement before
the code I pasted below to check that.

Also I can find two output files part-r-00000 and part-r-00001. But
they contain the values that has been outputted by the Mapper logic.

Please let me know what I can check further.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Warm regards
Arko

Hi Arko,

    What is value of  'no_of_reduce_tasks'?

If no of reduce tasks are 0, then the map task will directly write map
output  into the Job output path.

Thanks
Devaraj

Dear All,

I am porting code from the old API to the new API (Context objects)
and run on Hadoop 0.20.203.

Job job_first = new Job();

job_first.setJarByClass(My.class);
job_first.setNumReduceTasks(no_of_reduce_tasks);
job_first.setJobName("My_Job");

FileInputFormat.addInputPath( job_first, new Path (Input_Path) );
FileOutputFormat.setOutputPath( job_first, new Path (Output_Path) );

job_first.setMapperClass(Map_First.class);
job_first.setReducerClass(Reduce_First.class);

job_first.setMapOutputKeyClass(IntWritable.class);
job_first.setMapOutputValueClass(Text.class);

job_first.setOutputKeyClass(NullWritable.class);
job_first.setOutputValueClass(Text.class);

job_first.waitForCompletion(true);

The problem I am facing is that instead of emitting values to
reducers, the mappers are directly writing their output in the
OutputPath and the reducers and not processing anything.

As read from the online materials that are available both my Map and
Reduce method uses the context.write method to emit the values.

Please help. Thanks a lot in advance!!

Warm regards
Arko
