  • I have a PYTHONPATH set up in and it works fine too except when I run map-reduce job

  • It fails saying

    Traceback (most recent call last): File "/work/app/hadoop/tmp/mapred/local/taskTracker/hduser/jobcache/job_201203091218_0006/attempt_201203091218_0006_m_000020_0/work/./mapper.py", line 57, in from src.utilities import utilities ImportError: No module named src.utilities java.lang.RuntimeException: PipeMapRed.waitOutputThreads(): subprocess failed with code 1 at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRed.waitOutputThreads(PipeMapRed.java:311) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRed.mapRedFinished(PipeMapRed.java:545) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapper.map(PipeMapper.java:121) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:50) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRunner.run(PipeMapRunner.java:36) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.runOldMapper(MapTask.java:436) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:372) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child$4.run(Child.java:261) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAs(Subject.java:396) at org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation.doAs(UserGroupInformation.java:1059) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child.main(Child.java:255) java.lang.RuntimeException: PipeMapRed.waitOutputThreads(): subprocess failed with code 1 at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRed.waitOutputThreads(PipeMapRed.java:311) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRed.mapRedFinished(PipeMapRed.java:545) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapper.close(PipeMapper.java:132) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:57) at org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRunner.run(PipeMapRunner.java:36) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.runOldMapper(MapTask.java:436) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:372) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child$4.run(Child.java:261) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAs(Subject.java:396) at org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation.doAs(UserGroupInformation.java:1059) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child.main(Child.java:255)

Question: - Is it that during hadoop-streaming we have to setup Python path specifically? where?

I had the same issue, and I think the problem is that the Hadoop virtual environments won't recognize your system's pythonpath. If you install packages to /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages, Hadoop will pick them up and it will work.

we need to add MapReduce Service Environment Safety Valve, In mycase we are using cloudera-manager GUI, I added PYTHONPATH it's working.
