Why does my yarn application not have logs even wi

问题:

I have enabled logs in the xml file: yarn-site.xml, and I restarted yarn by doing:

sudo service hadoop-yarn-resourcemanager restart
sudo service hadoop-yarn-nodemanager restart

I ran my application, and then I see the applicationID in yarn application -list. So, I do this: yarn logs -applicationId <application ID>, and I get the following:

hdfs://<ip address>/var/log/hadoop-yarn/path/to/application/  does not have any log files

Do I need to change some other configuration? Or am I accessing the logs the wrong way?

Thank you.

yarn application -list

will list only the applications that are either in SUBMITTED, ACCEPTED or RUNNING state.

Log aggregation collects each container's logs and moves these logs onto the directory configured in yarn.nodemanager.remote-app-log-dir only after the completion of the application. Refer the description of yarn.log-aggregation-enable property here.

So, the applicationId listed by the command isn't completed yet and the logs are not yet collected. Thus the response when trying to access the logs of a running application

hdfs://<ip address>/var/log/hadoop-yarn/path/to/application/  does not have any log files

You can try the same command yarn logs -applicationId <application ID> to view the logs once the application has completed.

To list all the FINISHED applications, use

yarn application -list -appStates FINISHED

Or to list all the applications

yarn application -list -appStates ALL

In version 2.3.2 of hadoop and higher you can get log aggregation to occur hourly on running jobs using this configuration in yarn-site.xml:

<property>
    <name>yarn.nodemanager.log-aggregation.roll-monitoring-interval-seconds</name>
    <value>3600</value>
</property>

Enable Log Aggregation

Log aggregation is enabled in the yarn-site.xml file. The yarn.log-aggregation-enable property enables log aggregation for running applications.

<property>
 <name>yarn.log-aggregation-enable</name>
 <value>true</value>
</property>

It was probably saved with another appOwner. You can try to specify the application owner in your command:

yarn logs -appOwner .. -application_id ..
