Steve Loughran created HADOOP-10375: ---------------------------------------
Summary: Local FS doesn't raise an error on mkdir() over a file Key: HADOOP-10375 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10375 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: fs Affects Versions: 2.3.0 Reporter: Steve Loughran Assignee: Steve Loughran Priority: Minor if you mkdir() on a path where there is already a file, the operation does not fail. Instead the operation returns 0. This is at odds with the behaviour of HDFS. HADOOP-6229 add the check for the parent dir not being a file, but something similar is needed for the destination dir itself -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
