Aman Goyal created HADOOP-12108: ----------------------------------- Summary: Erroneous behavior of use of wildcard character ( * ) in ls command of hdfs Key: HADOOP-12108 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12108 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Aman Goyal Priority: Critical
If you have following directories in your LOCAL file system /data/hadoop/sample/00/contents1.txt /data/hadoop/sample/01/contents2.txt and following directories in hdfs : /data/hadoop/sample/00/contents1.txt /data/hadoop/sample/01/contents2.txt /data/hadoop/sample/02/contents3.txt suppose you run the following hdfs ls command: hdfs dfs -ls -R /data/hadoop/sample/* the paths that are printed have a reference to local paths, and only 00 & 01 directories get listed. this happens only when wildcard (*) character is used in input paths. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
