Where can i find a log which contains information about failure of mapreduce jobs? If something goes wrong I just get an error exit with status 1. I am running Hadoop 2.4.1 and using Hadoopy for mapreduce jobs.

  • It depends on where you set your hadoop mapred log files in mapred-site.xml or if you are using YARN that it should be pointed it out in your yarn-site.xml. I usually set the log into /var/log/ along with other system log files. – eliasah Aug 17 '14 at 14:10
  • would you mid to copy me your mapred-site and yarn-site? what is the default directory and what is the name of the log? – Nemanja91 Aug 17 '14 at 14:33
  • Try to read the [official documentation](http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.4.1/). Every Hadoop Developer went this way. – eliasah Aug 18 '14 at 07:19

By default logs will be save in /var/log. As discussed earlier the logs can be pointed to in configuration files available in /etc/hadoop/conf directory.
