Summary: Unit tests run fail in windows because of illegal escape character in file path Key: HIVE-10664 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10664 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Hari Sankar Sivarama Subramaniyan Assignee: Hari Sankar Sivarama Subramaniyan {code:title=In windows we hit errors as shown below } [ERROR] /D:/w/hv/itests/qtest/target/generated-test-sources/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/cli/TestHBaseNegativeCliDriver.java:[97,54] illegal escape character {code} Specifically, the lines it is complaining about in the log, look like this: {code:title=line 97 of /itests/qtest/target/generated-test-sources/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/cli/TestHBaseNegativeCliDriver.java} line 97: QTestUtil.addTestsToSuiteFromQfileNames("D:\w\hv\itests\qtest\target\generated-test-sources\java\org\apache\hadoop\hive\cli\TestHBaseNegativeCliDriverQFileNames.txt", qFilesToExecute, {code} It is executing the itests/qtests directory on the windows platform. It seems as if it is hitting a fairly simple portability problem, of the type that a small change will touch up all of them quickly. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
