Hi Folks ,

I am getting the below mentioned exception while running the Map reduce job
during the copy phase of the Mappers output.


I googled about it and tried all the possible solutions suggested but none
of them worked out in my case.

I tried to increase the memory available to JVM  -
D mapred.child.java.opts=-Xmx8G but didn't work out.

Then I also tried to increase the memory available for reducer -D
mapreduce.reduce.memory=2048m. No luck here also.

I also tried to reduce the -D mapred.job.reduce.input.buffer.percent , so
that it moves the output to disk instead of keeping it in memory but no
luck here also.

Please advise if I am missing something very basic here.
