I get an Invalid ID when I try to access pastebin, so I haven't seen the actual 
code.  But in the snippet below method that is not getting called should be 
named configure, not config.

public class BuildGraph extends MapReduceBase implements Mapper<> {

@Override
public void configure(JobConf conf) {
                                ...
}

@Override
public void map() {
                ...
}
}

My bad. Sorry I fixed it. It is BuildGraph.class

Don't you need to set this

     conf.setMapperClass(Mapper.class);

to BuildGraph?

I have a mapper


    public class BuildGraph{
       public void config(JobConf job){ <==this block doesnt seems to be 
exexcuting at all :(
        super.configure(job);
        this.currentId = job.getInt("currentId",0);
        if (this.currentId!=0){
        // I call a method from differnt class to build a distributed cache
        }
       }
      public void map(....){
    ....
    }
}

now the main code where this is called..

    public void run( String params,curId){
     JobConf conf = new JobConf(classname.class);
     conf.setInt("currentId",299); <--note this i am setting the value here
     conf.setMapperClass(Mapper.class);
     //....
      JobClient.runJob(conf);
    }

But the problem is config method in the code is not executing as though 
"currentId" returns 299 in main loop but it is not set at all in the mapper 
class.
what am i doing wrong
