Inconsistent split cardinality in DistributedRowMatrix.times()
Hi,
I was multiplying two matrices using
DistributedRowMatrix.times(DistributedrowMatrix other). The two matrices
were of size 15x30 (small experiment on my local machine). I got the
following exception:
12/09/01 23:33:46 ERROR security.UserGroupInformation:
PriviledgedActionException as:ahmed cause:java.io.IOException: Inconsistent
split cardinality from child 1 (2/1)

Any idea what might be the reason of that error?

Posted by Ahmed Elgohary <aa...@gmail.com>.
well, I figured out the reason of that problem. Mahout's
MatrixMultiplicationJob uses a CompositeInputFormat to join the input rows
of the two matrices being multiplied. CompositeInputFormat requires that
the two matrices should be partitioned the same way. My first matrix was in
a single sequence file while the second matrix was the output of a previous
mapreduce job with multiple reducers (so it was partitioned into multiple
sequence files). Am I missing something here? or it's a limitation with the
multiplication job. Is there an efficient way to avoid this limitation?
thanks,
