David Arthur commented on OOZIE-256:
------------------------------------
+1 this is a very unhelpful error. Without digging into Oozie source, there is
no real way to see what's wrong. In my case, I was missing
"oozie.wf.application.path" as well as some properties used in my workflow.xml
> GH-352: NPE on job -rerun
> -------------------------
>
> Key: OOZIE-256
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-256
> Project: Oozie
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Hadoop QA
>
> Note: I'm told that the below command to rerun a job is incorrect. i.e. it
> needs -config the parameter set as well. Regardless, Oozie could display a
> better error, and at least should not throw an NPE.
> On hash 6cf74d357f2ccdf31b960b337c36776ef0b734fc
> To reproduce:
> 1. Run the map-reduce example job: ./bin/oozie job -run -config
> examples/apps/map-reduce/job.properties
> 2. Wait for job to run to completion.
> 3. Attempt to re-run said job: ./bin/oozie job -rerun
> 0000002-110126164352576-oozie-atm-W
> The oozie client prints the following:
> Error: HTTP error code: 500 : Internal Server Error
> In the oozie server logs, you'll see the following error:
