Github user sachingoel0101 commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/1214#issuecomment-146913514 IMO even removing the detached mode might be better than restricting to `Program` interface. Instead of failing late in the execution, or with a non-informative warning, it would be better to fail before submitting anything to the JobManager, and throw a nice exception message documenting the exact cause of failure.
