[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-2953) namenode doesn't start if group id
cannot be resolved to name
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2953?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12643526#action_12643526 ]
Patrick Winters commented on HADOOP-2953:
-----------------------------------------
I have a similar problem running hadoop in the Sun Grid Engine, but this occurs when I'm using the CLI. It is as (Nicholas) said, that the command `groups` fails. In SGE, you get assigned an effective gid when your task submission runs, which doesn't map to a name. I've created a patch which uses only real gid's and ignores effective ones. Ultimately it uses `id -rgn` instead of `groups`
