I believe that kill-task simple kills the task, but then the same process (i.e. task) starts, with a new id. Jay Vyas MMSB UCHC On Jul 20, 2012, at 6:23 PM, Bejoy KS bejoy.had...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Jay Did you try hadoop job -kill-task task-id ? And is that not working as desired?

Re: Issue with loading the Snappy Codec

2012-04-15 Thread JAX
That is odd why would it crash when your m/r job did not rely on snappy? One possibility : Maybe because your input is snappy compressed, Hadoop is detecting that compression, and trying to use the snappy codec to decompress.? Jay Vyas MMSB UCHC On Apr 15, 2012, at 5:08 AM, Bas
