Ted Yu commented on HBASE-4161:
-------------------------------

Looking at your patch:
{code}
+    if (fs.exists(editsdir)) {
{code}
The above would in turn call 
(src/hdfs/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/DistributedFileSystem.java):
{code}
  public FileStatus getFileStatus(Path f) throws IOException {
    FileStatus fi = dfs.getFileInfo(getPathName(f));
    if (fi != null) {
      return makeQualified(fi);
    } else {
      throw new FileNotFoundException("File does not exist: " + f);
    }
  }
{code}
So ?

> While opening a region, the HBase regionserver tries to list all the children 
> in a "recovered.edits" directory. This directory may not exist and depending 
> on the version of HDFS listStatus() might return null or an exception. If it 
> does throw an exception the entire process of opening the region is aborted, 
> just because the recovered.edits directory is not present.
