I got these errors I don't know what they mean, any help is appreciated.
I suspect that either its a H/W error or the cluster is out of space to
store intermediate results?
there is still lots of free space left on the cluster.

Nope. In fact, it could be much more complicated as it gets %)

Several possible causes of this error, as far as I know:

* An error in partitioner (for example, look out for negative keys and
default "key % numReducers" algorithm - strange Java modulo operator
(%) yields negative values for negative keys, thus effectively sending
output to non-existing reducers).
* An error in group/key/value comparator.


I only had 1 reducer running.
you think it is possibly a bug in my reducer code?
