Brock Noland updated FLUME-1000:
--------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: v1.3.0)
v1.4.0
> Properties validator misses an invalid config
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLUME-1000
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1000
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: v1.1.0
> Environment: RHEL 6.2 64-bit
> Reporter: Will McQueen
> Fix For: v1.4.0
>
>
> The following config is invalid, but is not caught by the properties
> validator (no sinks are specified).
> a1.sources = r1
> a1.channels = c1
> #a1.sinks = k1
> a1.sources.r1.type = SEQ
> a1.sources.r1.channels = c1
> a1.channels.c1.type = MEMORY
> #a1.sinks.k1.type = logger
> #a1.sinks.k1.channel = c1
> If I run with this config, then the source and channel instance is created.
> If you add a print statement to ChannelProcessor.processEvent(), you'll see
> that the source is sending events to the channel. The source generates about
> 104 events, and then generates an additional one about every second... which
> is interesting, since the mem channel's default capacity is only 100 and
> there's no sink. When I do a runtime configuration by changing the the props
> file to this:
> #a1.sources = r1
> a1.channels = c1
> a1.sinks = k1
> #a1.sources.r1.type = SEQ
> #a1.sources.r1.channels = c1
> a1.channels.c1.type = MEMORY
> a1.sinks.k1.type = logger
> a1.sinks.k1.channel = c1
> ...then sink instance is created but the SEQ source is not stopped -- it
> continuously sends events at a rapid pace.
> I mention this because observing the behavior of even invalid configs might
> give clues as to problems that might occur with valid configs (such as a
> source not being stopped upon dynamic reconfig).
