-----------------------------------------
Correction: so that issues like PIG-2870 don't occur.
> pigServer.openIterator fails for jobs with no input splits

> Key: PIG-2870
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2870
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.11
> Reporter: Bill Graham
> Assignee: Bill Graham
> Attachments: PIG-2870.1.patch
>
>
> Jobs that have valid input data, but 0 input splits (this is the case where
> indexing implemented in the {{InputFormat}} might return 0 splits for an
> aggressive filter) fail when {{pigServer.openIterator}} is called. This is
> because {{mapred.output.dir}} isn't set, so the job succeeds without creating
> the empty output directory. The {{ReadToEndLoader}} then fails due to the
> null input directory.
> It seems PIG-2578 introduced this issue.
