[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-3889) job client tries to use /tasklog interface, but that doesn't exist anymore

["Devaraj K (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3889?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13291704#comment-13291704 ] 

Devaraj K commented on MAPREDUCE-3889:
--------------------------------------

By default this issue is coming from the Job client for all the Jobs which has any failed tasks or if the profiling is enabled(MAPREDUCE-4294).

When the 400 error prints on the console/job client side, the users may think that due to this error job got failed and starts investigating on this instead of checking the original cause for job failure. 


As Vinod mentioned, I feel it is better to remove/disable this feature as TaskLogServlet support is already removed and there is no info in the Job Client/NM for mapping from task attempt to container id.

Is there any other way to go ahead for this issue?

> if you specify  -Dmapreduce.client.output.filter=SUCCEEDED option when running a job it tries to fetch task logs to print out on the client side from a url like: http://nodemanager:8080/tasklog?plaintext=true&attemptid=attempt_1329857083014_0003_r_000000_0&filter=stdout
> It always errors on this request with: Required param job, map and reduce
> We saw this error when using distcp and the distcp failed. I'm not sure if it is mandatory for distcp or just informational purposes.  I'm guessing the latter.
