Thanks for the suggestions, people. I will try to hone in on which specific gzipped files, if any, are actually corrupt.
Michael, I’m using Hadoop 1.0.4, which I believe is the default version that gets deployed by spark-ec2. The JIRA issue I linked to earlier, HADOOP-5281<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5281>, affects Hadoop 0.18.0 and is fixed in 0.20.0 and is also related to gzip compression. I know there is some funkiness in how Hadoop is versioned, so I’m not sure if this issue is relevant to 1.0.4. Were you able to resolve your issue by changing your version of Hadoop? How did you do that?
