------------------------------------
Summary: Fail gracefully on an un-parseable version string
Key: ACCUMULO-4554
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4554
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Josh Elser
Assignee: Josh Elser
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.0.0
Just had a delightfully odd failure case where every single IT that used a
minicluster would timeout and fail.
Turns out, if you happen to set a version on Accumulo (e.g. what I might do if
I were testing locally and wanted to be isolated) which doesn't match what
Version.java *wants* your version to be, an {{IllegalArgumentException}} is
thrown which brings down all of the processes.
The fun part is that this Version is used no-where, save the {{accumulo
version}} command. We can and should fail gracefully -- there is no reason we
should fail hard as we do now.
