[jira] [Updated] (MAPREDUCE-4857) Fix 126 error during map/reduce phase

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4857?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Fengdong Yu updated MAPREDUCE-4857:
-----------------------------------

    Description: 
There is rare happenings during map or reduce phase, but mostly in map phase, the Exception messages: 
java.lang.Throwable: Child Error
	at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskRunner.run(TaskRunner.java:271)
Caused by: java.io.IOException: Task process exit with nonzero status of 126.
	at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskRunner.run(TaskRunner.java:258)

and error logs are cleaned, so It's very hard to debug.

but I compared DefaultTaskController.java with 0.22, they use "bash command" to start the job scritp, but 1.0.4 use "bash, "-c", command".

I removed "-c", everything is ok, 126 error code never happen again.

I read man document of bash, it indicates when fork a new thread with write command, another thread with "bash -c" also has a writable fd. so I think it could return 126 status occasionally.
