Error: E0505 : E0505: App definition

Question

Getting error when executing below command.

oozie job -oozie http://localhost:11000/oozie -config coordinator.properties -run

Error: E0505 : E0505: App definition [hdfs://localhost:8020/tmp/oozie-app/coordinator/] does not exist

any suggestions.

Answer 1

Please check below property from job properties file-

oozie.wf.application.path

This should point to HDFS directory where you have workflow.xml and coordinator.xml

Note that if the path DOES exist but does not contain a workflow.xml or coordinator.xml, you will still receive the same, slightly misleading App definition ... does not exist error.
