ContainerExecutor Error Codes (YARN)

The codes in the table apply to the container-executor in YARN, but are used by the LinuxContainerExecutor only.


Numeric Code	Name	Description
1	INVALID_ARGUMENT_NUMBER	Incorrect number of arguments provided for the given container-executor command Failure to initialize the container localizer
2	INVALID_USER_NAME	The user passed to the container-executor does not exist.
3	INVALID_COMMAND_PROVIDED	The container-executor does not recognize the command it was asked to run.
5	INVALID_NM_ROOT	The passed NodeManager root does not match the configured NodeManager root (`yarn.nodemanager.local-dirs`), or does not exist.
6	SETUID_OPER_FAILED	Either could not read the local groups database, or could not set UID or GID
7	UNABLE_TO_EXECUTE_CONTAINER_SCRIPT	The container-executor could not run the container launcher script.
8	UNABLE_TO_SIGNAL_CONTAINER	The container-executor could not signal the container it was passed.
9	INVALID_CONTAINER_PID	The PID passed to the container-executor was negative or 0.
18	OUT_OF_MEMORY	The container-executor couldn't allocate enough memory while reading the container-executor.cfg file, or while getting the paths for the container launcher script or credentials files.
20	INITIALIZE_USER_FAILED	Couldn't get, stat, or secure the per-user NodeManager directory.
21	UNABLE_TO_BUILD_PATH	The container-executor couldn't concatenate two paths, most likely because it ran out of memory.
22	INVALID_CONTAINER_EXEC_PERMISSIONS	The container-executor binary does not have the correct permissions set. See "YARN, MRv1, and Linux OS Security".
24	INVALID_CONFIG_FILE	The container-executor.cfg file is missing, malformed, or has incorrect permissions.
25	SETSID_OPER_FAILED	Could not set the session ID of the forked container.
26	WRITE_PIDFILE_FAILED	Failed to write the value of the PID of the launched container to the PID file of the container.
255	Unknown Error	This error has several possible causes. Some common causes are: User accounts on your cluster have a user ID less than the value specified for the `min.user.id` property in the `container-executor.cfg` file. The default value is 1000 which is appropriate on Ubuntu systems, but may not be valid for your operating system. For information about setting `min.user.id` in the `container-executor.cfg` file, see "Step 7: Prepare the cluster for each user". This error is often caused by previous errors; look earlier in the log file for possible causes.

The following exit status codes apply to all containers in YARN. These exit status codes are part of the YARN framework and are in addition to application specific exit codes that can be set:


Numeric Code	Name	Description
0	SUCCESS	Container has finished succesfully.
-1000	INVALID	Initial value of the container exit code. A container that does not have a COMPLETED state will always return this status.
-100	ABORTED	Containers killed by the framework, either due to being released by the application or being 'lost' due to node failures, for example.
-101	DISKS_FAILED	Container exited due to local disks issues in the NodeManager node. This occurs when the number of good nodemanager-local-directories or nodemanager-log-directories drops below the health threshold.
-102	PREEMPTED	Containers preempted by the framework. This does not count towards a container failure in most applications.
-103	KILLED_EXCEEDED_VMEM	Container terminated because of exceeding allocated virtual memory limit.
-104	KILLED_EXCEEDED_PMEM	Container terminated because of exceeding allocated physical memory limit.
-105	KILLED_BY_APPMASTER	Container was terminated on request of the application master.
-106	KILLED_BY_RESOURCEMANAGER	Container was terminated by the resource manager.
-107	KILLED_AFTER_APP_COMPLETION	Container was terminated after the application finished.
