>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-425
>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Steve Loughran
>            Priority: Minor

> This may be something that only my code triggers; an NPE in TaskTracker$TaskInProgress.cleanup
> {code}
> [sf-startdaemon-debug] 09/01/28 11:41:06 [TaskLauncher for task] INFO mapred.TaskTracker : Error cleaning up task runner: java.lang.NullPointerException
> [sf-startdaemon-debug] 	at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker$TaskInProgress.cleanup(TaskTracker.java:2487)
> [sf-startdaemon-debug] 	at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker.startNewTask(TaskTracker.java:1825)
> [sf-startdaemon-debug] 	at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker.access$1100(TaskTracker.java:104)
> [sf-startdaemon-debug] 	at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker$TaskLauncher.run(TaskTracker.java:1779)
> {code}
> Looking at the code, the only source of NPE's on that line is localJobConf
> {code}
>   if (localJobConf.getNumTasksToExecutePerJvm() == 1) {
> {code}
> It looks like if TaskInProgress.cleanup() ever gets called with no valid localJobConf, then an NPE is the result. The exception gets logged and discarded, but it does appear in the logs.
