I am using Hadoop 1.0.0 and Giraph 1.0.0. My Giraph jobs hangs, and I observed that one fo the worker hangs and many other workers wait for this worker. After searching and analyzing this issue, I think I am facing the same issue as mentioned in GIRAPH-806 Since a patch is available for this bug, I downloaded the patch file and tried to apply in the following manner. Step 1: Downloaded fresh copy of Giraph 1.0.0Step 2: used command "mvn package -DskipTests". It successfully built giraph. all SUCCESSStep 3: I am now trynig to make changes in the follwoing program "giraph-core/src/main/java/org/apache/giraph/comm/netty/NettyServer.java" according to what was given in the GIRAPH-806.patch. There I face an issue that its not clear from the patch as to how dowe apply this patch. Can someone please help me in this regard - PuneetIIT Delhi, India
