Unknown Error

Several possible causes for this error, including:

  • User accounts on the cluster with an ID less than the value specified for the min.user.id property in the taskcontroller.cfg file. Default value of 1000 is good for Ubuntu but may not be valid for other OSs. To set the min.user.id in the taskcontroller.cfg file, see Step 7: Prepare the Cluster for Each User.
  • Jobs do not run and the TaskTracker is unable to create a Hadoop logs directory (see Troubleshooting Error Messages).
  • May result from previous errors. Check older entries in the log file for possibilities.
