Sqoop job running in oozie getting killed with err message Container exited with a non-zero exit code 137

Expert Contributor

sqoop jobs running in oozie get killed randomly with error

There is no one really killing the job so why do I see :

Killed by external signal<br>

I get this error in task diagnostic log

Container exited with a non-zero exit code 137
Killed by external signal

Under diagnostics, I keep getting:

Application killed by user.

Heap Memory allocated to Sqoop is 2GB.

we started getting this error out of nowhere and now it is seldom that my oozie workflow with all sqoop jobs in it completes without this error. On every 2nd or 4th job, I get this error.

I don't see any other errors anywhere. Can I please get some pointers on this? How do I fix this?

I also see some of them failing with:

2018-04-16 22:25:21,494 [main] ERROR org.apache.sqoop.tool.ImportTool  - Import failed: org.apache.hadoop.mapred.FileAlreadyExistsException: Output directory <a href="link">hdfs://ip:8020/user/hue/folder/hots/2017-04-16--08--30--00/table_hsn_mapping</a> already exists

All my jobs in oozie are ecxecuting with:

job --meta-connect jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://ip:16000/sqoop --exec table_hsn_mapping -- --warehouse-dir folder/Snapshots/${DATE}

So, I never used to get FileAlreadyExists error because of using warehouse-dir folder. Somehow I started getting it 2 days back and none of it makes sense to me right now. Any help would be appreciated.
