Adrian Woodhead commented on HADOOP-2271: ----------------------------------------- Interesting that you don't have the issue while having a longer path. Maybe it has something to do with version of chmod or shell? We experienced the error on both machines we tried it on here with similar length paths. > chmod in ant package target fails > --------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2271 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2271 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: build > Affects Versions: 0.15.0 > Reporter: Adrian Woodhead > Attachments: HADOOP-2271-1.patch > > > If you checkout the trunk to a folder long than /tmp (in my case it is > "/home/adrian/workspace/hadoop-trunk") and you execute the command: > ant clean package > You get the following error: > BUILD FAILED > /home/adrian/workspace/hadoop-trunk/build.xml:730: Execute failed: > java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "chmod": java.io.IOException: > error=7, Argument list too long > I also tried this from the folder "/tmp/trunk" and the package target worked > fine so I imagine the argument list is becoming too long due to the folder > being longer. A simple fix for this should be to set the "parallel" attribute > on chmod to false. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
