Jean-Baptiste Onofré updated HADOOP-9651:
-----------------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
This patch updates the RawLocalFileSystem to throw FileAlreadyExistsException.
> Filesystems to throw FileAlreadyExistsException in createFile(path,
> overwrite=false) when the file exists
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-9651
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9651
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0-beta
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: HADOOP-9651.patch
>
>
> While HDFS and other filesystems throw a {{FileAlreadyExistsException}} if
> you try to create a file that exists and you have set {{overwrite=false}},
> {{RawLocalFileSystem}} throws a plain {{IOException}}. This makes it
> impossible to distinguish a create operation failing from a fixable problem
> (the file is there) and something more fundamental.
