--------------------------------------
Resolution: Not a Problem
Fixed in trunk.
> HADOOP_LOG_DIR has to be set explicitly when running from the tarball
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-7895
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7895
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 0.23.0
> Reporter: Eli Collins
>
> When running bin and sbin commands from the tarball if HADOOP_LOG_DIR is not
> explicitly set in hadoop-env.sh it doesn't use HADOOP_HOME/logs by default
> like it used to, instead picks a wrong dir:
> {noformat}
> localhost: mkdir: cannot create directory `/eli': Permission denied
> localhost: chown: cannot access `/eli/eli': No such file or directory
> {noformat}
> We should have it default to HADOOP_HOME/logs or at least fail with a message
> if the dir doesn't exist, the env var isn't set.
