Atempt to make a directory under an existing file on LocalFileSystem should throw an Exception. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-6229 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6229 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: fs Reporter: Boris Shkolnik This task is sub task of HDFS-303 {quote} "1. When trying to make a directory under an existing file, HDFS throws an IOException while LocalFileSystem doesn't. An IOException seems good here. " {quote} Actually HDFS throws FileNotFoundException in this case (in FSDirectory.mkdirs() ). So I guess we should do the same. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
