Description

We have noticed intermittent reducer task failures with the below exception:

Error: org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.Shuffle$ShuffleError: error in shuffle in fetcher#9 at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.Shuffle.run(Shuffle.java:134) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ReduceTask.run(ReduceTask.java:376) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.YarnChild$2.run(YarnChild.java:163) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAs(Subject.java:415) at org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation.doAs(UserGroupInformation.java:1628) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.YarnChild.main(YarnChild.java:158) Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Ljava/lang/InternalError at org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.snappy.SnappyDecompressor.decompressBytesDirect(Native Method) at org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.snappy.SnappyDecompressor.decompress(SnappyDecompressor.java:239) at org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.BlockDecompressorStream.decompress(BlockDecompressorStream.java:88) at org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.DecompressorStream.read(DecompressorStream.java:85) at org.apache.hadoop.io.IOUtils.readFully(IOUtils.java:192) at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.InMemoryMapOutput.shuffle(InMemoryMapOutput.java:97) at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.Fetcher.copyMapOutput(Fetcher.java:534) at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.Fetcher.copyFromHost(Fetcher.java:329) at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.Fetcher.run(Fetcher.java:193) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Ljava.lang.InternalError at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:366) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:355) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:354) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:425) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:308) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:358) ... 9 more 

Usually, the reduce task succeeds on retry.

Some of the symptoms are similar to HADOOP-8423, but this fix is already included (this is on Hadoop 2.6).
