Ahmed El Baz created HADOOP-8899: ------------------------------------ Summary: Classpath exceeds maximum OS limit Key: HADOOP-8899 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8899 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1-win Reporter: Ahmed El Baz
We hit errors in TT due to long classpath value. One example is Oozie trying to start a hive job, and it fails with the following error: java.io.IOException: Command exceeds the OS command length limit: 8192, command: "set CLASSPATH="…. The classpath includes Hadoop Core + Hive Jars which are in the distributed cache. This is causing the classpath to be too long giving the error above. A viable long term fix is to generate a temporary JAR file in the task cache directory which includes all elements in the long classpath, and then provide this as the "-classpath" argument for the JVM to be spawned. This is gated for Windows only. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
