--------------------------------------------
Summary: duplicate files cause flume to enter irrecoverable state
Key: FLUME-2119
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2119
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Sinks+Sources
Reporter: Jonathan Cooper-Ellis
If a spoolingdir receives FileA, after it is picked up by Flume and renamed to
FileA.COMPLETED placing another file of the same original name (FileA) will
cause Flume to log an IllegalStateException indefinitely. This is likely due to
Flume attempting to rename the second FileA to FileA.COMPLETED, but finding
that the file already exists.
When Flume has entered this state, it can only be recovered by removing the
.COMPLETED file from the directory and restarting the agent.
