Jason Lowe updated MAPREDUCE-4689: ---------------------------------- Attachment: MAPREDUCE-4689.patch Patch to CompletedTask so it returns empty counters instead of null counters in the task report. In addition to unit test, I also manually tested it with a fail job and verified that JobClient.getMapTaskReports did not throw an NPE when it redirected to the historyserver for the failed job. > JobClient.getMapTaskReports on failed job results in NPE > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4689 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4689 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: client > Affects Versions: 0.23.3 > Reporter: Jason Lowe > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-4689.patch > > > When calling JobClient.getMapTaskReports for a job that has failed results in > an NPE.
