Job jar file is not set. User classes may not be found in Hadoop… here is a solution to the problem.

Job jar file is not set. User classes may not be found in Hadoop

I’m trying to run the MR wordcount job. But I didn’t set up the job jar fileset. I’m posting a stack trace, can someone help me?

I’m running this command

hadoop jar wordcount.jar org.gamma.WordCount /user/jeet/getty/gettysburg.txt /user/jeet/getty1/out

This is my word count class

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.*;
import org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path;
import org.apache.hadoop.conf.*;
import org.apache.hadoop.io.*;
import org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.*;

import org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.input.TextInputFormat;
import org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.output.FileOutputFormat;
import org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.output.TextOutputFormat;

public class WordCount {

public static class Map extends Mapper<LongWritable, Text, Text, IntWritable> {
    private final static IntWritable one = new IntWritable(1);
    private Text word = new Text();

public void map(LongWritable key, Text value, Context context) throws IOException, InterruptedException {
        String line = value.toString();
        StringTokenizer tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(line);
        while (tokenizer.hasMoreTokens()) {
            word.set(tokenizer.nextToken());
            context.write(word, one);
        }
    }
 } 

public static class Reduce extends Reducer<Text, IntWritable, Text, IntWritable> {

public void reduce(Text key, Iterable<IntWritable> values, Context context) 
      throws IOException, InterruptedException {
        int sum = 0;
        for (IntWritable val : values) {
            sum += val.get();
        }
        context.write(key, new IntWritable(sum));
    }
 }

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    Configuration conf = new Configuration();

Job job = new Job(conf, "WordCount");

job.setOutputKeyClass(Text.class);
    job.setOutputValueClass(IntWritable.class);

job.setMapperClass(Map.class);
    job.setReducerClass(Reduce.class);

job.setInputFormatClass(TextInputFormat.class);
    job.setOutputFormatClass(TextOutputFormat.class);

FileInputFormat.addInputPath(job, new Path(args[0]));
    FileOutputFormat.setOutputPath(job, new Path(args[1]));

job.waitForCompletion(true);
    job.setJarByClass(WordCount.class);
 }

}

Solution

You are submitting the job before telling the job which JAR class corresponds to it. Very clear in your error message:

14/01/27 16:52:26 WARN mapred. JobClient: No job jar file set.  User classes may not be found. See JobConf(Class) or JobConf#setJar(String).

Swap the last two lines of the driver and it will work:

 job.setJarByClass(WordCount.class);
 job.waitForCompletion(true);
