             Summary: indexer fails if linkdb is missing
                 Key: NUTCH-2041
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2041
             Project: Nutch
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: indexer, linkdb
    Affects Versions: 1.10
            Reporter: Sebastian Nagel
             Fix For: 1.11


If the linkdb is missing the indexer fails with
{noformat}
2015-06-17 12:52:10,621 ERROR 
...cause:org.apache.hadoop.mapred.InvalidInputException: Input path does not 
exist: .../linkdb/current
{noformat}

If both db.ignore.internal.links and db.ignore.external.links there will be no 
LinkDb even if "invertlinks" is run (as consequence of NUTCH-1913). The script 
"bin/crawl" does not know about the values of these two properties and calls 
indexer with "-linkdb .../linkdb" which will then fail.

Since "bin/crawl" is agnostic to properties defined in nutch-site.xml we 
solution similar to NUTCH-1854: make the tool/job more tolerant and log a 
warning instead of raising an error.
