     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8274?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

tim.wu updated HADOOP-8274:
---------------------------

    Description: 
The standalone model is ok. But, in pseudo or cluster model, it always throw errors, even I just run wordcount example.

The HDFS works fine, but tasktracker can not create threads(jvm) for new job.  It is empty under /logs/userlogs/job-xxxx/attempt-xxxx/.

The reason looks like that in windows, Java can not recognize a symlink of folder as a folder. 

The detail description is as following,

======================================================================================================

First, the error log of tasktracker is like:

=======================================

I've tried to remote debug tasktracker. In 

org.apache.hadoop.mapredTaskLog.createTaskAttemptLogDir(TaskAttemptID, boolean, String[]) line: 97:
public static void createTaskAttemptLogDir(TaskAttemptID taskID,
      boolean isCleanup, String[] localDirs) throws IOException{
    String cleanupSuffix = isCleanup ? ".cleanup" : "";
    String strAttemptLogDir = getTaskAttemptLogDir(taskID, 
        cleanupSuffix, localDirs);
    File attemptLogDir = new File(strAttemptLogDir);
    if (!attemptLogDir.mkdirs()) {
      throw new IOException("Creation of " + attemptLogDir + " failed.");
    }
    String strLinkAttemptLogDir = 
        getJobDir(taskID.getJobID()).getAbsolutePath() + File.separatorChar + 
        taskID.toString() + cleanupSuffix;
    if (FileUtil.symLink(strAttemptLogDir, strLinkAttemptLogDir) != 0) {
      throw new IOException("Creation of symlink from " + 
                            strLinkAttemptLogDir + " to " + yestrAttemptLogDir +
                            " failed.");
    }
    //Set permissions for target attempt log dir 
    FsPermission userOnly = new FsPermission((short) 0777); //FsPermission userOnly = new FsPermission((short) 0700);
    FileUtil.setPermission(attemptLogDir, userOnly);
  }
and  symlink() function
public static int symLink(String target, String linkname) throws IOException{
    String cmd = "ln -s " + target + " " + linkname;
    Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd, null);
    int returnVal = -1;
    try{
      returnVal = p.waitFor();
    } catch(InterruptedException e){
      //do nothing as of yet
    }
    if (returnVal != 0) {
      LOG.warn("Command '" + cmd + "' failed " + returnVal + 
               " with: " + copyStderr(p));
    }
    return returnVal;
  }

we know hadoop will create a log folder in ${hadoop.tmp.dir},  and then invoke "ln -s " to create its symlink under /logs/userlog/job-xxx/attermp-xxxx. 

In my case, 
strLinkAttemptLogDir = D:\cygwin\home\timwu\hadoop-1.0.0\logs\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1
strAttemptLogDir=/tmp/hadoop-timwu/mapred/local\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1

After a subtrack is created by tasktracker, it runs error in the following function:

in org.apache.hadoop.mapred.java , DefaultTaskController.launchTask(String, String, String, List<String>, List<String>, File, String, String) line: 107        
      ...............
      //mkdir the loglocation
      String logLocation = TaskLog.getAttemptDir(jobId, attemptId).toString();
      if (!localFs.mkdirs(new Path(logLocation))) {
        throw new IOException("Mkdirs failed to create " 
                   + logLocation);
      }
     ..............

mkdir() return false, because logLocation is a symlink file. In my case, it is ogLocation=D:\cygwin\home\timwu\hadoop-1.0.0\logs\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1.  If I open it from explorer in windows, it is just a file,  but not a folder or shortcut. And its content is like,
         <symlink>/tmp/hadoop-timwu/mapred/local\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1 

Because the mkdir() is
public boolean mkdirs(Path f) throws IOException {
    Path parent = f.getParent();
    File p2f = pathToFile(f);
    return (parent == null || mkdirs(parent)) &&
      (p2f.mkdir() || p2f.isDirectory());
  }

So, p2f.isDirectory returns false.  And p2f.isFile will return true. So, for java, it is a file. Hence, IOException("Mkdirs failed to create D:\cygwin\home\timwu\hadoop-1.0.0\logs\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000001_1")
will be throws in child threads, and return -1.  Then, we will get the above exception in main thread.

Is it any way to close this symlink? Or any other way I can follow?

BTW, in core-site.xml, I set  hadoop.tmp.dir = /tmp/hadoop-${user.name},  and my $User.name is timwu. So, it should create a tmp folder /tmp/hadoop-timwu  under cygwin's.   However, in deed , it create  a folder of d:/tmp/hadoop-timwu. If in cygwin, it is /cygdriver/d/tmp/hadoop-timwu.  Is it correct?

  was:
The standalone model is ok. But, in pseudo or cluster model, it example always throw errors, even I just run wordcount example.

The HDFS works fine, but tasktracker can not create threads(jvm) for new job.  It is empty under /logs/userlogs/job-xxxx/attempt-xxxx/.

The reason looks like that in windows, Java can not recognize a symlink of folder as a folder. 

The detail description is as following,

  }
and  symlink() function
public static int symLink(String target, String linkname) throws IOException{
    String cmd = "ln -s " + target + " " + linkname;
    Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd, null);
    int returnVal = -1;
    try{
      returnVal = p.waitFor();
    } catch(InterruptedException e){
      //do nothing as of yet
    }

               " with: " + copyStderr(p));
    }
    return returnVal;
  }

we know hadoop will create a log folder in ${hadoop.tmp.dir},  and then invoke "ln -s " to create its symlink under /logs/userlog/job-xxx/attermp-xxxx. 

In my case, 
strLinkAttemptLogDir = D:\cygwin\home\timwu\hadoop-1.0.0\logs\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1
strAttemptLogDir=/tmp/hadoop-timwu/mapred/local\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1

After a subtrack is created by tasktracker, it runs error in the following function:

in org.apache.hadoop.mapred.java , DefaultTaskController.launchTask(String, String, String, List<String>, List<String>, File, String, String) line: 107        
      ...............
      //mkdir the loglocation
      String logLocation = TaskLog.getAttemptDir(jobId, attemptId).toString();
      if (!localFs.mkdirs(new Path(logLocation))) {
        throw new IOException("Mkdirs failed to create " 
                   + logLocation);
      }
     ..............

mkdir() return false, because logLocation is a symlink file. In my case, it is ogLocation=D:\cygwin\home\timwu\hadoop-1.0.0\logs\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1.  If I open it from explorer in windows, it is just a file,  but not a folder or shortcut. And its content is like,
         <symlink>/tmp/hadoop-timwu/mapred/local\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000002_1 

Because the mkdir() is
public boolean mkdirs(Path f) throws IOException {
    Path parent = f.getParent();
    File p2f = pathToFile(f);
    return (parent == null || mkdirs(parent)) &&
      (p2f.mkdir() || p2f.isDirectory());
  }

So, p2f.isDirectory returns false.  And p2f.isFile will return true. So, for java, it is a file. Hence, IOException("Mkdirs failed to create D:\cygwin\home\timwu\hadoop-1.0.0\logs\userlogs\job_201203280212_0005\attempt_201203280212_0005_m_000001_1")
will be throws in child threads, and return -1.  Then, we will get the above exception in main thread.

Is it any way to close this symlink? Or any other way I can follow?

BTW, in core-site.xml, I set  hadoop.tmp.dir = /tmp/hadoop-${user.name},  and my $User.name is timwu. So, it should create a tmp folder /tmp/hadoop-timwu  under cygwin's.   However, in deed , it create  a folder of d:/tmp/hadoop-timwu. If in cygwin, it is /cygdriver/d/tmp/hadoop-timwu.  Is it correct?

        Summary: In pseudo or cluster model under Cygwin, tasktracker can not create a new job because of symlink problem.  (was: In pseudo or cluster model Under cygwin, tasktracker can not create a new job because of symlink problem.)

>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0, 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 0.22.0
>         Environment: windows7+cygwin 1.7.11-1+jdk1.6.0_31+hadoop 1.0.0

>
> The standalone model is ok. But, in pseudo or cluster model, it always throw errors, even I just run wordcount example.
> The HDFS works fine, but tasktracker can not create threads(jvm) for new job.  It is empty under /logs/userlogs/job-xxxx/attempt-xxxx/.
> The reason looks like that in windows, Java can not recognize a symlink of folder as a folder.
