[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-278?page=all ]
Owen O'Malley updated HADOOP-278: --------------------------------- Attachment: input-dir-check.patch This patch adds a method for InputFormat that checks to see if a list of input paths is valid. InputFormatBase implements the simple check to make sure that each path represents a directory. JobClient checks the validity of each path and stops the job submission with a message to the user if any directories are invalid. > a missing map/reduce input directory does not produce a user-visible error > message > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-278 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-278 > Project: Hadoop > Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Versions: 0.3.1 > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > Fix For: 0.4.0 > Attachments: input-dir-check.patch > > If map/reduce's input directory is in DFS and does not exist, the user has to > find the problem in the jobtracker logs rather than either the launching > program or the webapp. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
