why Falcon job is Failing?

avatar
Super Collaborator

Hey guys,

I am badly stuck at running falcon job and trying to solve this since two days.I have designed data pipeline which loads data on hourly basis from HDFS loaction and put it in hive table(table is partitioned already).

The Error which I am getting in OOzie UI for falcon process is :

Main class [org.apache.oozie.action.hadoop.HiveMain], exit code [40000].

I have checked the oozie launcher logs and yarn logs too but some wrong configuration I didnt able to see yarn logs.

What to do in such a case?

Where I should look for the error/logs?

Where I will get to see complete or string reason of error?

Command:

yarn logs -applicationId <ID>

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are total 3 XML

1)InputFeedhive.xml(Which refer to HDFS location)

2)processHive.xml(Runs hive script to load data into hive table)

3)hiveOutputFeed.xml(Refer to hive table.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The hive.hql conatin only:

LOAD DATA INPATH "${input}" OVERWRITE INTO TABLE "${falcon_output_table}" PARTITION(${falcon_output_partitions_hive});

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The HDFS Loaction is in following format:

/user/manoj/input/bdate=2016-05-21-09/employee.txt

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A emloyee.txt contains

12,john,304

13,brown,305

14,jeddy,306

Thanks Sri,

I have checked yarn logs too but about which error log file you are talking?

I mean,oozie error log file/falcon/hive log file?

About whichever log file you are talking,please mention the log file name so that I can immediately send it you.

I replicated the same scenario and getting same error of Main class [org.apache.oozie.action.hadoop.HiveMain], exit code [40000]. Detailed error from STDERR is

Logging initialized using configuration in /yarn1/hadoop/yarn/local/usercache/id847257/appcache/application_1475673186013_1313/container_e69_1475673186013_1313_01_000002/hive-log4j.properties

I looked for any blank character at the given index, but didn't find any resolution.
