Does anyone know if there is a problem using Amazon’s S3Distcp tool with MapR

  • 0

Does anyone know if there is a problem using Amazon’s S3Distcp tool with MapR running on EMR? I’m trying to use it, but keep getting the following exception in /mnt/var/log/hadoop/steps:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to delete directory hdfs:/tmp/e9333a37-f400-4982-9687-326e33d9b37d/files

at com.amazon.external.elasticmapreduce.s3distcp.S3DistCp.deleteRecursive(S3DistCp.java:603)

the command line I’m using to submit the job step is:

elastic-mapreduce --jobflow $JOB_ID --jar s3://us-east-1.elasticmapreduce/libs/s3distcp/1.latest/s3distcp.jar \
--args '--src,s3n://PVData/raw, \
--dest,/PVData/raw'

For the –dest argument I have tried maprfs:///PVData/raw and hdfs:///PVData/raw as well and they don’t work either.

    I got an answer to this question over on the MapR forum (http://bit.ly/S7gzcv). The problem was I needed to specify the temp directory as maprfs:///tmp using the –tmpDir argument to s3distcp
