Java Heap space error

Mohit Anchlia 2012-03-06, 01:03

I currently have java.opts.mapred set to 512MB and I am getting heap space
errors. How should I go about debugging heap space issues?

All I see in the logs is:
2012-03-05 17:26:36,889 FATAL org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker: Task:
attempt_201203051722_0001_m_000030_1 - Killed : Java heap space

Looks like task tracker is killing the tasks. Not sure why. I increased
heap from 512 to 1G and still it fails.

I am still trying to see how to narrow this down. Is it possible to set
heapdumponoutofmemoryerror option on these individual tasks?

Re: Java Heap space error

I'm curious if you have been able to track down the cause of the error?
We've seen similar problems with loading data and I've discovered if I
presort my data before the load that things go a LOT smoother.

When running queries against our data sometimes we've seen it where the
jobtracker just freezes. I've seen Heap out of memory errors when I
cranked up jobtracker logging to debug. Still working on figuring this
one out. should be an interesting ride :D
