Description

The AbstractLauncher doesn't use the system agnostic approach for setting the HADOOP_CONF_DIR env setting, so it doesn't get set properly if the slider client is on unix and the yarn cluster is running on windows platforms. The AM therefore can no load the configuration files as resources.

Possible workaround:

Specify the properties you need in slider-client.xml
