Hi,
I have some files (dont ask) that are on my hdfs system (from a previous dfs
-put)
that look like the following
/home/test/Don't call, i will call you !!.txt
/home/test/Hello there !! {12345}.doc
When I attempt to do a dfs -get with the either double or single quotes around
the filepath
I have issues with bash shell interaction (shell expansion,braces etc)
eg: dfs -get "/home/test/Don't call, i will call you!!.txt" /tmp
or
dfs -get '/home/test/Hello there !! {12345}.doc' /tmp
so I am currently doing
dfs -get "/home/test/Don?t call, i will call you??.txt" /tmp
or
dfs -get '/home/test/Hello there ?? ?12345?.doc' /tmp
using ? as character wildcard and the get works
I would appreciate knowing if anyone else has similar issues with the
shell "special characters" being part of filename on hdfs causing
problems, and what you are doing to get around it.
Would it still be an issue even if I go the fuse route, I have not tried that.
Thanks / Frank
ps: running fedora 9/hadoop 0.18.0
