ASF GitHub Bot commented on MAHOUT-1794: ---------------------------------------- Github user andrewmusselman commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/mahout/pull/178#issuecomment-198210366 Although cluster-syntheticcontrol.sh worked for both options, both default and specified path, and both local and remote, cluster-reuters.sh fails for option 1 in local mode with a specified path. Al could you confirm you've tested the examples with all options, local and remote, and with default and specified path? > Support alternate temporary directories in example scripts. > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAHOUT-1794 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1794 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Examples > Affects Versions: 0.11.1 > Reporter: Albert Chu > Assignee: Andrew Musselman > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.12.0 > > > In many of the example scripts, a directory in /tmp (e.g. > /tmp/mahout-work-dir) is created for use as temporary scratch space, such as > to store data files that are downloaded. > In a number of HPC environments, /tmp may not exist or /tmp may be very small > b/c local disk drives don't exist. It'd be convenient to be able to specify > an alternate directory to use as scratch space. > Pull request via Github to be sent shortly. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
