[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-342?page=comments#action_12426039 ] Chris Schneider commented on NUTCH-342: ---------------------------------------
I apologize for my confusion. I had been thinking that hadoop-env.sh was getting sourced when a Nutch command was run; it is not. Thus, $HADOOP_LOG_DIR and $HADOOP_LOG_FILE are not set when executing Nutch commands. For now, I think it makes most sense for me to set NUTCH_LOG_DIR and NUTCH_LOGFILE to the same locations as $HADOOP_LOG_DIR and $HADOOP_LOG_FILE via .bash_profile, etc. I consider this awkward, but am unsure about how best to address this design problem. I'm beginning to think that NUTCH_LOGFILE should default to something like "nutch-$USER-$COMMAND-`hostname`.log", which would seem more appropriate to find within the $NUTCH_HOME/logs directory. > Nutch commands log to nutch/logs/hadoop.logs by default > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-342 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-342 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Chris Schneider > Priority: Minor > Attachments: NUTCH-342.patch > > > If (by default) Nutch commands are going to send their output to a file named > "hadoop.log", then it seems like the default location for this file should be > the same location where Hadoop is putting its hadoop.log file (i.e., > $HADOOP_LOG_DIR).
