Devaraj Das updated HADOOP-436:
-------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Concluding that the Map task failed may not be always right in
> getMapOutput.jsp
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-436
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-436
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mapred
> Reporter: Devaraj Das
> Assigned To: Devaraj Das
> Attachments: getmapout.patch
>
>
> In the getMapOutput.jsp, tracker.mapOutputLost is called irrespective of
> whether the sender of the map output threw an exception or the receiver died
> (thereby closing the socket causing the jsp to throw an exception). Invoking
> the method causes the corresponding map task to fail and causes it to be
> rescheduled but it may be the case that the problem is at the reciever's end.
> Need to do a better check of where the exception was thrown.
