Lost ability to run in cluster mode

Seems today, if I work in cluster mode my job will hang

a = load '/user/robert/nyse.csv' using PigStorage(',') as
(exchange:chararray,stock_symbol:chararray,
date:chararray,stock_price_open:double,stock_price_high:double,
stock_price_low:double,
stock_price_close:double,stock_volume:int,stock_price_adj_close:double);
dump a;

When a dumps - it just hangs...
ie

the above url does not work, looking in the logs directory All I see are
xml related logs

this is a tiny file like 100k

If I run the same in local mode( pig -x local) - it runs fine

robert [ at ] dime910 ~ :( $ hadoop dfs -ls
-rw-r--r-- 3 robert supergroup 186505 2014-08-25 13:48
/user/robert/nyse.csv

I have a fully functioning system but something is wrong and not sure where
to look. Logs seems likely but not sure where?

any ideas, direction would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Bob
