Configuration of directory lists should trim whitespace -------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-1441 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1441 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Improvement Components: jobtracker, tasktracker Affects Versions: 0.21.0, 0.22.0 Reporter: Todd Lipcon Assignee: Todd Lipcon HADOOP-2366 added a getTrimmedStringCollection method to Configuration. MapReduce should use this for all the cases where it configures a list of directories. This solves issues that come up when people set mapred.local.dir to "/data/1, /data/2, /data/3" (note the spaces). This is a very common mistake that we should guard against. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
