Josh Elser created ACCUMULO-4600:
------------------------------------
Summary: Shell does not fall back to accumulo-site.xml when on
classpath
Key: ACCUMULO-4600
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4600
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Components: shell
Affects Versions: 1.7.3
Reporter: Josh Elser
Priority: Critical
When inspecting 1.7.3-rc1 for the VOTE, I did the following steps:
* Unpack bin-tarball
* Copy 3gb native example confs
* Set {{instance.volumes}} in accumulo-site.xml
* {{export ACCUMULO_HOME="$(pwd)"}}
* {{./bin/accumulo init}}
* {{./bin/start-all.sh}}
* {{./bin/accumulo shell -u root}}
The shell failed to connect stating that no tservers were running. By turning
on the debug option to the shell, I could see that the wrong HDFS directory was
being used to find the Accumulo instance ID, {{/accumulo}} instead of
{{/accumulo173rc1}}.
This appears to be because of
{{ClientContext#convertClientConfig(Configuration)}} and
{{Shell#getZooInstance(String, String, ClientConfiguration}}. The client
configuration is empty, therefore, all values end up being pulled from the
{{DefaultConfiguration}} instance instead of the accumulo-site.xml which is on
the classpath.
