I am running a job on a cluster launching from a windows box and " fs.default.name" to point the job to the cluster. Everything works until the last step where I say
FileSystem fileSystem = FileSystem.get(config); // this is hdfs fileSystem.copyToLocalFile(src, dst); // local system at this point RawLocalFileSystem tries to exec chmod which is not on windows. This looks like a bug - it seems that there should be a fallback system or better yet a call to the Java standard File.canWrite command before attempting to alter permissions -- Steven M.
