Runping, could you look at HADOOP-737 & check if HADOOP-639 fixes it for you? Thanks! > The non-existence of the job.xml file causes a LOT of tasks of the job fail > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-810 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-810 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Runping Qi > Assigned To: Arun C Murthy > > For some reason, the job.xml file disappears from one of the nodes.
