Jeff Zhang commented on PIG-1475: --------------------------------- Mike, Could you paste your pig script and the full exception call stack ? Attach the sample data would be better > Large number of FILTER matching clauses causes internal error 2998 > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: PIG-1475 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1475 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Components: grunt > Affects Versions: 0.6.0 > Environment: Amazon Elastic MapReduce with Pig 0.6 and Hadoop 0.20.2 > Reporter: Mike Subelsky > Priority: Minor > > I'm generating reports using Pig where I only want to report on rows matching > a set of regular expressions, but those regular expressions are pretty > numerous. > Pig fails with this internal error when I run FILTER with 500 terms: > 2010-06-29 15:46:04,579 [main] ERROR org.apache.pig.tools.grunt.Grunt - ERROR > 2998: Unhandled internal error. null > This only occurred when I ran my Pig script against Hadoop with the full > dataset. When I ran Pig in local mode, with a smaller sample file, Pig > handled the FILTER command just fine. > The workaround has been to split my list into two separate lists of 250 then > UNION the results, but I assume this is something that could be addressed in > the code. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
