> CDPATH environment variable causes bin scripts to fail.
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-6101
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6101
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: scripts
> Affects Versions: 0.19.1
> Reporter: Phil Hagelberg
> Priority: Minor
>
> Most of the scripts in bin/* assume that cd produces no output. But when
> using bash (and some other shells) cd will output the destination directory
> if the CDPATH environment variable is set. CDPATH is very useful, and it's
> unfortunate to have to unset it to use Hadoop.
> The offending line (in start-all.sh, though most of the scripts exhibit the
> problem) is:
> bin=`cd "$bin"; pwd`
> Adding this to the top of each affected script will fix the problem:
> unset CDPATH
