Costin Leau created HADOOP-9123:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Windows clients cannot create proper CP entries inside
the DistributedCache
Key: HADOOP-9123
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9123
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: filecache, io, ipc
Affects Versions: 1.0.4
Reporter: Costin Leau
DistributedCache addArchive/FileToClassPath makes use of
System.getProperty("path.separator").
This means that if the client (windows) is different then the server (linux)
the classpath cannot be properly constructed since the client uses ; while the
server uses :.
As this is a platform specific setting it would be best to either use the
server setting all the time or use a different character or property (that is
not used inside the URI) and translate that to the platform specific character.
The easiest fix would be to just use the *nix path separator, namely ":".
