Exception in thread "main" org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RemoteException: java.io.IOExce

["Zeltov, Alex (YBUSA-KOP)" <Al...@Yellowbook.com>]

I am having an issue starting a job on  a hadoop pseudo cluster. I am getting an exception see below. I tried to override  the mapred.local.dir with -D parameter and by passing a custom config as well

Here is the custom config declaration:

zeltoa01@hadoop01:~/dev/etl/Hadoop/ybhadoop$ cat etc/hadoop-cluster.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
        <property>
                <name>mapred.local.dir</name>
                <value>${hadoop.tmp.dir}/mapred/local</value>
        </property>
  <property>
          <name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name>
          <value>/opt/hadoop-datastore</value>
    <description>A base for other temporary directories.</description>
  </property>
