Hadoop Yarn job: Wrong FS

Question

I installed a cloudera cluster with a vagrant box. I get an error when I launch the following example:

 hadoop jar /usr/lib/hadoop-mapreduce/hadoop-mapreduce-examples.jar grep input output23 'dfs[a-z.]+'

I went to check the log in /var/log/hadoop-yarn. There several log file, in yarn-yarn-nodemanager-cdh-master.log, there is the following stackstrace:

I've seen this error

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Wrong FS:
hdfs://var/log/hadoop-yarn, expected: hdfs://cdh-master:8020

in the following post: Failed to start Jobtracker and Tasktracker in CDH pseudo cluster, but this did not helped me much.

Does anyone has an idea?

Thx

Answer 1

Change the property yarn.nodemanager.remote-app-log-dir in yarn-site.xml config file either to:

<property>  
  <name>yarn.nodemanager.remote-app-log-dir</name>
  <value>hdfs://cdh-master:8020/var/log/hadoop-yarn/apps</value>
</property>

or

<property>  
  <name>yarn.nodemanager.remote-app-log-dir</name>
  <value>/var/log/hadoop-yarn/apps</value>
</property>

The second option will use the default filesystem that should be set to HDFS anyway.
