Luca Telloli commented on HDFS-456:
-----------------------------------
Mahadev, yes, tests are probably failing on Windows since the patch has been
tested thoroughly under Linux and MacOsX.
I have requested a virtual machine with windows installed, since at the moment
I don't have any windows machine available.
Konstantin, I'd like to understand better what you mean with your #1. Do you
want to assign root "/" as a Storage Directory?
Also, I would remove #4 from your comments, I think it's unfair, incorrect, and
not useful to the issue. I assume that a developer is not requested to have any
possible environment ready to test the patch locally; instead, the testing
system (hudson?) should take care of it.

> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: name-node
> Affects Versions: 0.21.0

> Assignee: Luca Telloli
> Fix For: 0.21.0

>
> There are several problems with recent commit of HDFS-396.
> # It does not work with default configuration "file:///". Throws
> {{IllegalArgumentException}}.
> # *ALL* hdfs tests fail on Windows because "C:\mypath" is treated as an
> illegal URI. Backward compatibility is not provided.
> # {{IllegalArgumentException}} should not be thrown within hdfs code because
> it is a {{RuntimException}}. We should throw {{IOException}} instead. This
> was recently discussed in another jira.
> # Why do we commit patches without running unit tests and test-patch? This is
> the minimum requirement for a patch to qualify as committable, right?
