Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-3438:
----------------------------------------
I should add that this makes running under the debugger trickier too. This
property should only be needed if no log dir is set in the configuration.
> NPE if job tracker started and system property hadoop.log.dir is not set
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
