Hi ! I'm using hadoop-1.0.3 to run streaming jobs with map/reduce shell scripts such as this
bin/hadoop jar ./contrib/streaming/hadoop-streaming-1.0.3.jar -input /input -output /output/015 -mapper "streaming-map.sh" -reducer "streaming-reduce.sh" -file /home/hadoop/streaming/streaming-map.sh -file /home/hadoop/streaming-reduce.sh but the job fails and the task attemp log shows this, java.lang.RuntimeException: Error in configuring object at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.setJobConf(ReflectionUtils.java:93) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.setConf(ReflectionUtils.java:64) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.newInstance(ReflectionUtils.java:117) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.runOldMapper(MapTask.java:432) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:372) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child$4.run(Child.java:255) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAs(Subject.java:396) at org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation.doAs(UserGroupInformation.java:1121) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child.main(Child.java:249) Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.setJobConf(ReflectionUtils.java:88) ... 9 more Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Error in configuring object at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.setJobConf(ReflectionUtils.java:93) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.setConf(ReflectionUtils.java:64) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.newInstance(ReflectionUtils.java:117) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.configure(MapRunner.java:34) ... 14 more Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ReflectionUtils.setJobConf(ReflectionUtils.java:88) ... 17 more Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: configuration exception at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRed.configure(PipeMapRed.java:230) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapper.configure(PipeMapper.java:66) ... 22 more Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/tmp/hadoop-hadoop/mapred/local/taskTracker/hadoop/jobcache/job_201301041944_0001/attempt_201301041944_0001_m_000000_0/work/./streaming-map.sh": java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory at java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(ProcessBuilder.java:460) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRed.configure(PipeMapRed.java:214) ... 23 more Caused by: java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory at java.lang.UNIXProcess.<init>(UNIXProcess.java:148) at java.lang.ProcessImpl.start(ProcessImpl.java:65) at java.lang.ProcessBuilder.start(ProcessBuilder.java:453) ... 24 more I tried to see what the problem is and found out that the missing file is a symbolic link and hadoop isn't able to create it, in fact the /tmp/hadoop-hadoop/...........00000_0/work directory doesn't exist at all. here's an exerpt from the task attempt syslog (full text attached): 2013-01-04 19:44:43,304 INFO org.apache.hadoop.filecache.TrackerDistributedCacheManager: Creating symlink: /tmp/hadoop-hadoop/mapred/local/taskTracker/hadoop/jobcache/job_201301041944_0001/jars/streaming-map.sh <- /tmp/hadoop-hadoop/mapred/local/taskTracker/hadoop/jobcache/job_201301041944_0001/attempt_201301041944_0001_m_000000_0/work/streaming-map.sh hadoop is thinking that it's successfully created the symbolic link from .....job_201301041944_0001/jars/streaming-map.s to job_201301041944_0001/attempt_201301041944_0001_m_000000_0/work//streaming-map.s but it actually doesn't. Therefore throwing the error. If you had same experience or knows work around it please comment! otherwise i'll file a jira tomorrow for it seems to be an obvious bug.
