             Summary: ReliableSpoolingFileEventReader.rollCurrentFile is broken
                 Key: FLUME-2950
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2950
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: v1.7.0
            Reporter: Lior Zeno
             Fix For: v1.7.0


FLUME-2939 introduced Java 7 API (nio.file) to ReliableSpoolingFileEventReader. 
However, the committed patch breaks rollCurrentFile on Windows machines.
File rename might be not atomic, in such cases, and under the assumption that 
the rolled file and the current file store the same data, Flume only logs a 
warning and does not assume that the user broke the contract that the spooling 
directory source demands.
In order to determine whether the files store the same data, we used the 
com.google.common.io.Files.equal method. However, FLUME-2939 uses 
java.nio.file.Files.isSameFile which has different semantics.
Consequently, this relaxation does not hold anymore. In addition, 
org.apache.flume.client.avro.TestSpoolingFileLineReader.testDestinationExistsAndSameFileWindows
 fails.

I attach a patch that brings back the old check for Files.equal.
