M/R job submission failing with error: Could not find Yarn tags property > (mapreduce.job.tags)


I am getting the following exception when running a map/reduce job. We submit map/reduce jobs through oozie.

I did a google search, and found the following SO post: Hadoop MapReduce job starts but can not find Map class? However the resolution mentioned in this post is not working for me, I cannot see any file permission related errors in the log files.

We are using Cloudera distribution.


Solution

  • You need to upgrade Oozie sharelibs. Follow instructions in Cloudera's documentation. Namely:

    sudo oozie-setup sharelib create -fs FS_URI -locallib /usr/lib/oozie/oozie-sharelib-yarn

    Don't forget to restart Oozie afterwards. This helped us to solve this particular problem after CDH 5.5 upgrade.
