[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-476) Streaming should check for correctness of the task

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-476?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12462574 ] 

Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-476:
--------------------------------------

Sorry this patch has sat idle so long!

I tried this patch out and it messed up the usage. In particular, with no options it should print the usage:

oom@cdev6009> bin/hadoop jar build/hadoop-streaming.jar
07/01/05 11:19:58 ERROR streaming.StreamJob: Missing required option -input
Required argument: -input <name>

With -help it is a little better, but the old usage was far nicer to read:

oom@cdev6009> bin/hadoop jar build/hadoop-streaming.jar -help
07/01/05 11:20:43 ERROR streaming.StreamJob: Unexpected -help while processing -input|-output|-mapper|-combiner|-reducer|-file|-dfs|-jt|-inputreader|||-cacheFile|-cacheArchive|-verbose|-info|-debug|-inputtagged
Required argument: -input <name>

> Currently, if anythin is wrong with streaming job, it dies without any explanation.
> Before creating and running actual MapReduce job, Streaming should check if:
> -- the executables (or scripts) for -mapper and -reducer are available and have right permissions
> -- the input fragments exist
