Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-2007:
---------------------------------------

Please configure mapred.system.dir to be a constant and somewhere outside of 
/tmp. I personally like to use something like /hadoop/system so that it is very 
clear that this is a framework directory.

> Jobs use incorrect path to job.xml for different users

> We run hadoop/hdfs under a generic username of 'hadoop'.  When submitting a 
> job as user 'fred', the job.xml file gets created correctly as 
> /tmp/*hadoop-fred*/mapred/system/<job_id>/job.xml, but the JobInProgress 
> constructor appears to use the incorrect path of 
> /tmp/*hadoop-hadoop*/mapred/system/<job_id>/job.xml for the copyToLocalFile 
> operation.  This results in an exception because the job.xml file does not 
> exist under /tmp/hadoop-hadoop.
> I think the incorrect path gets created on line 133 in JobInProgress.java 
> right before the call to copyToLocalFile.  If I hardcode the correct path 
> (just to test my theory) of "/tmp/hadoop-fred/mapred/system" in place of the 
> call to default_conf.getSystemDir(), the job kicks off and runs to completion 
> as the user 'fred' with hadoop/hdfs running as the user 'hadoop'.
> Here's a portion of the output when the job is submitted by user 'fred':
> [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ hadoop --config /usr/local/hadoop/conf jar 
> /usr/local/hadoop/current/hadoop-0.14.1-examples.jar wordcount 
> mytest/input/data output2
