oozie - mr container fails to start on rhel6 node when app master is on rhel7

rpiccand — Tue, 26 Sep 2017 16:47:59 GMT

Hi all - we have a cluster of RHEL6 and RHEL7 nodes.

When oozie launches a workflow and uses a RHEL7 node as application master, the tasks dispatched to RHEL6 nodes fail to execute the launch_container.sh script. As per the log, it looks like the PATH could be not set properly, see below, as it cannot find the "ln" command.

Stack trace: ExitCodeException exitCode=127: /data/d9/yarn/nm/usercache/hdfs/appcache/application_1506341577822_0486/container_e102_1506341577822_0486_01_000004/launch_container.sh: line 30: ln: command not found

The log from the job looks like below

When MR jobs are not triggered by Oozie, all is fine on those RHEL7 nodes.

I'm able to reproduce the issue with HDP 2.3.4 and 2.3.6.

I could not find any known Oozie issue that got fixed in later versions.

Any help or pointers welcome.

Best,

Hey @kirk chou- sorry for not having posted this earlier.

This was due to differences in system $PATH between the RHEL6 and the RHEL7 hosts (the 'usr/bin/ln' vs '/bin/ln' command in this case).

Oozie forcefully overrides the ShellAction child tasks execution context, especially $PATH, as defined in the application master nodes. If values in $PATH on the application master node differ from $PATH on the worker node, then the task will fail on the worker node.

Hope this helps,

@regis piccand / @kirk chou

I was able to resolve similar issue(java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "bash": error=2, No such file or directory) for our customer.

This happens because "/bin" and "/sbin" missing in your $PATH in container launch environment.

$PATH variable gets derived from nodemanager's env and nodemanager get's the env from ambari-agent's /var/lib/ambari-agent/ambari-env.sh.

To fix this, add "/bin" and "/sbin" in /var/lib/ambari-agent/ambari-env.sh, restart ambari-agent followed by nodemanager restart.

Happy Hadooping!
