Its from /home/emil/project/hadoop-0.20.2/jar_files/wordcount/input that I take my input files file01 and file02. When i googled i found out that this is done to prevent re-execution of same task. But in my case its the input file that is causing the exception. Is there anything wrong with my command because I don't see any posts with the same erro
