Hi Roy,

Have you looked on the nodes in charge of sink tasks ? You should be able
to find them on flink web interface by clicking on the sink taks. If you
get the OVERWRITE error, your output is certainly somewhere.
By the way, when using distributed mode it is easier to use an output like
HDFS. This way you'll find the result on the same path no matter where sink
tasks had been ran.

Regards,

Alexis.
