Hi Ted and Christian, In fact, the problem is filed as HADOOP-10510. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10510 This problem is also reproduced on my local, but not on the other environment. Maybe it's environment-dependent problem. However, I cannot understand the condition this problem occurs correctly.
