Hello,

I am using CDH 5.0 Quickstart VM for VirtualBox. I run a mapreduce job and it completes successfully. The reduce code has several System.out.println statements which should be logged in the job log. But when I open logs in Hue>Jobbrowser, I get the error message:

 

Error getting logs for job_1404657916663_0001

 

When I see the Hue logs in /var/log/hadoop-mapreduce/hadoop-cmf-yarn-JOBHISTORY-localhost.localdomain.log.out, I find exceptions like the one below:

So, I do:

hdfs dfs -chmod -R -777 /tmp/logs/cloudera

 

drwxrwxrwx   - cloudera supergroup          0 2014-07-06 08:23 /tmp/logs/cloudera/logs

 

Then I run the napreduce job again. I still get the same error in job browser.

The permissions to the log directory have reverted.

 

drwxrwx---   - cloudera supergroup          0 2014-07-06 08:23 /tmp/logs/cloudera/logs

 

What should be done to get the logs for the job?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Lohith.
