When creating a hadoop archive and specifying an output path of an already existing file, we get an "Invalid Output" error message. {code} [schu@hdfs-vanilla-1 ~]$ hadoop archive -archiveName foo.har -p /user/schu testDir1 /user/schu Invalid Output: /user/schu/foo.har {code} This error can be improved to tell users immediately that the output path already exists. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
