--------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
> Dropping records at reducer. InMemoryFileSystem NPE.
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-2486
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2486
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mapred
> Affects Versions: 0.14.3
> Reporter: Koji Noguchi
> Attachments: 2486.patch
>
>
> Note: I'm really not sure if this is a bug in my code or in mapred.
> With my mapreduce job without combiner, I sometimes see # of total Map
> output records != # of total Reduce input records. What's weird to me is,
> when I rerun my code with exact same input, usually I get an expected #map
> output recs == #reduce output recs.
> Both jobs finish successfully. No failed tasks. No speculative execution.
> I ran separate linecount mapred jobs on both the input and the output to see
> if the counters are reporting the correct number.
> When I looked at all the 513 reducer counter, I found single reducer with
> different counts for the two runs.
> Only error stood out in that reducer userlog is,
> {noformat}
