-------------------------------------
Summary: winutils can create unusable symlinks
Key: HADOOP-9043
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9043
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: util
Affects Versions: 1-win, trunk-win
Reporter: Chris Nauroth
Assignee: Chris Nauroth
In general, the winutils symlink command rejects attempts to create symlinks
targeting a destination file that does not exist. However, if given a symlink
destination with forward slashes pointing at a file that does exist, then it
creates the symlink with the forward slashes, and then attempts to open the
file through the symlink will fail.
