Uwe Geercken commented on NIFI-3607:
------------------------------------
Sorry for being short worded...
I create small and simple json files from shell scripts in a central folder.
They are used for monitoring some processes. They contain just a few bytes of
data.
I have configured the processor for multiple files, given a reg expression
(monitoring_.*.json), and provided the base directory.
I start the processor and there are a few json files in the folder and the
TailFile picks them up correctly. But then over time more json files are
created. These new files don't get picked up unless I stop and start the
TailFile processor. But when I do, they get correctly picked up.
> TailFile does not notice new files in folder

> Key: NIFI-3607
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3607
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.1.1
> Environment: Fedora 25
> Reporter: Uwe Geercken
> Priority: Critical
>
> I have configured the TailFile processor to read multiple (small) files from
> a folder.
> This works, but if more files are created in the folder, the processor does
> not pick them up, even though the "Lookup frequency" is set (10 minutes).
> If I stop and start the processor, it correctly picks up the new files.
