Amar Kamat commented on MAPREDUCE-807: -------------------------------------- ant tests passed on my box. > Stray user files in mapred.system.dir with permissions other than 777 can > prevent the jobtracker from starting up. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-807 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-807 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: jobtracker > Reporter: Amar Kamat > Assignee: Amar Kamat > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: MAPRED-807-v1.1.patch > > > With restart disabled, the jobtracker does a _rm -rf_ of the > mapred.system.dir. If the mapred.system.dir contains user files with > permissions other than 777 then the jobtracker gets stuck in a loop trying to > delete the mapred.system.dir (and each time failing with > AccessControlException). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
