> IsolationRunner does not work as documented in the tutorial.
> The tutorial  says "To use the IsolationRunner, first set keep.failed.tasks.files to true (also see keep.tasks.files.pattern)."
> Should be:
>   keep.failed.task.files (not tasks)
> After the above was set (quoted from my message on hadoop-core):
> > After the task
> > hung, I failed it via the web interface.  Then I went to the node that was
> > running this task
> >
> >   $ cd ...local/taskTracker/jobcache/job_200808071645_0001/work
> > (this path is already different from the tutorial's)
> >
> >   $ hadoop org.apache.hadoop.mapred.IsolationRunner ../job.xml
> > Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
> >         at
> > org.apache.hadoop.mapred.IsolationRunner.main(IsolationRunner.java:164)
> >
> > Looking at IsolationRunner code, I see this:
> >
> >     164     File workDirName = new File(lDirAlloc.getLocalPathToRead(
> >     165                                   TaskTracker.getJobCacheSubdir()
> >     166                                   + Path.SEPARATOR + taskId.getJobID() 
> >     167                                   + Path.SEPARATOR + taskId
> >     168                                   + Path.SEPARATOR + "work",
> >     169                                   conf). toString());
> >
> > I.e. it assumes there is supposed to be a taskID subdirectory under the job
> > dir, but:
> >  $ pwd
> >  ...mapred/local/taskTracker/jobcache/job_200808071645_0001
> >  $ ls
> >  jars  job.xml  work
