Generator exits incorrectly for small fetchlists
-------------------------------------------------
Key: NUTCH-503
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-503
Project: Nutch
Issue Type: Bug
Components: generator
Affects Versions: 0.9.0, 0.8.1, 0.8
Environment: Fedora Core 2, JDK 1.6
Reporter: Vishal Shah
Fix For: 0.8.2
I think I found the reason why the generator returns with an empty fetchlist
for small fetchsizes.
After the first job finishes running, the generator checks the following
condition to see if it got an empty list:
if (readers == null || readers.length == 0 || !readers[0].next(new
FloatWritable())) {
The third condition is incorrect here. In some cases, esp. for small
fetchlists, the first partition might be empty, but some other partition(s)
might contain urls. In this case, the Generator is incorrectly assuming that
all partitions are empty by just looking at the first. This problem could also
occur when all URLs in the fetchlist are from the same host (or from a very
small number of hosts, or from a number of hosts that all map to a small number
of partitions).
