> Stumbled over the case that i'm accessing fields in a tuple which type are not as i expected. The stack trace in one case looked as follow:
> {noformat}
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: execution failed
> 	at com.my.Executor.run(Executor.java:284)
> Caused by: java.io.IOException: Unable to store alias C
> 	at org.apache.pig.impl.util.WrappedIOException.wrap(WrappedIOException.java:16)
> 	at org.apache.pig.PigServer.store(PigServer.java:335)
> 	at org.apache.pig.PigServer.store(PigServer.java:317)
> 	at com.my.Executor.run(Executor.java:280)
> 	... 2 more
> Caused by: org.apache.pig.backend.executionengine.ExecException

> 	at org.apache.pig.backend.local.executionengine.LocalExecutionEngine.execute(LocalExecutionEngine.java:32)
> 	at org.apache.pig.PigServer.store(PigServer.java:332)
> 	... 4 more
> Caused by: java.io.IOException: Incompatible type for request getAtomField().

> 	at org.apache.pig.backend.local.executionengine.POStore.getNext(POStore.java:105)
> 	at org.apache.pig.backend.local.executionengine.LocalExecutionEngine.execute(LocalExecutionEngine.java:130)
> 	... 6 more
> {noformat}
> The exception message and the stacktrace gave me a clue what kind of problem i was facing. But to know what exactly happened i needed to debug (or temporarily add some system-outs).  
> Looking at the code (of Tuple class) i think the exception-information can be improved easily (add index and actual field type information) .
> Also it seems that there is some space for simplifying the exception handling.
