Suraj Menon commented on MAPREDUCE-2097:
----------------------------------------
Hello,
I faced a similar error. Found out that it is causing for me because of '='
sign in my hostname.
As an example, please read the following snippet:
URI u = URI.create("http://abcd--proto=dhcp:5006";);
String host = u.getHost();
System.out.println("u.getHost = " + host);
It prints -
u.getHost = null
>From http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/net/URI.html , I
>found out that '=' sign is a valid character.
Correct me if I am wrong. Is there a way out of this. I can't change my
hostname. I hard-coded the address and built the jar for now. :)
Thanks,
Suraj
