Hi Selva prabhu,

Would you increase the value for the below property and try again?

oozie-default.xml
<property>
<name>oozie.action.max.output.data</name>
<value>XXXX</value>
</property> 

Ambari:

1. Navigate to Ambari > Services > Oozie > Configs tab.
2. Expand the Custom oozie-site section.
3. Click the Add Property link.
4. For Key, enter the following: oozie.action.max.output.data 
5. For Value, enter the new number of bytes accordingly(Currently the results are exceeding 2048B, try doubling the value)
6. Save configuration.
7. Restart all required components.

Hope it helps. Thanks
