Hi, I am using hive-0.13.0 and hadoop-2.4.0, why I must set 'mapreduce.jobtracker.address' in yarn-site.xml? otherwise, there are exceptions and job failed.
And, 'mapreduce.jobtracker.address' can be set to any value. The following messages are gened without set 'mapreduce.jobtracker.address'. Job output on the console: Execution log at: /tmp/test/test_20140507180505_bcd4d89f-017c-4cf4-81a3-5fa619de0ad0.log Job running in-process (local Hadoop) Hadoop job information for null: number of mappers: 1; number of reducers: 1 2014-05-07 18:06:25,782 null map = 0%, reduce = 0% 2014-05-07 18:06:33,699 null map = 100%, reduce = 0% 2014-05-07 18:06:34,774 null map = 0%, reduce = 0% 2014-05-07 18:06:49,222 null map = 100%, reduce = 100% Ended Job = job_1399453944131_0006 with errors Error during job, obtaining debugging information...
