Hi!
I'm trying to run a MR job, but it keeps on failing and I can't
understand
why.
Sometimes it shows output at 66% and sometimes 98% or so.
I had a couple of exception before that I didn't catch that made the
job to
fail.
The log file from the task can be found at:

From the logs it looks like the TaskTracker killed your reduce task
because it didn't report any progress for 10 mins, which is the
default timeout.
FWIW it's probably because _one_ of the calls to your 'reduce'
function got stuck trying to communicate with one of the external
resources you are using...
