---------------------------------
Summary: Broken links in ORC format specifications
Key: ORC-1615
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ORC-1615
Project: ORC
Issue Type: Bug
Components: documentation
Affects Versions: 1.9.2
Reporter: Conor McAvoy
In the [ORC specification|https://orc.apache.org/specification/ORCv1/], under
section "File Tail", there is a link that is intended to go to the Protobuf
definition of ORC files:
[https://github.com/apache/orc/blob/main/proto/orc_proto.proto] . This link
leads to a 404, as the actual Protobuf definition has been moved to the
orc-format repo here:
[https://github.com/apache/orc-format/blob/main/src/main/proto/orc/proto/orc_proto.proto]
.
The fix would be to correct this link in the 3 ORC format specifications, [ORC
v0|https://orc.apache.org/specification/ORCv0/], [ORC
v1|https://orc.apache.org/specification/ORCv1/], and [ORC
v2|https://orc.apache.org/specification/ORCv2/]. Furthermore, [the new
orc-format repo has the wrong link
too|https://github.com/apache/orc-format/blob/main/specification/ORCv0.md?plain=1#L44],
again for all three versions of the spec. It should be correct in those 3
files as well.
This is a pretty small issue but it was actually tough for me as a new user to
find the original file, since it had gone to a different repo.
