I can think of a few, most obvious ones:

1. Job didn't succeed and/or the file was deleted (*shields self*)
2. Job overrode the default FileOutputCommitter with something that
doesn't do success marking.
3. Job specifically asked to not create such files, via config
mapreduce.fileoutputcommitter.marksuccessfuljobs or so, set to false.
