Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-4214: -------------------------------------------- It's already logged by this code in OfflineEditsViewer: {code} ... } catch(Exception e) { System.err.println("Encountered exception. Exiting: " + e.getMessage()); e.printStackTrace(System.err); return -1; } ... {code} I guess arguably that should catch {{Throwable}}. But even if that doesn't happen, Java would just bubble the exception up to the top level and print it to stderr. > OfflineEditsViewer should print out the offset at which it encountered an > error > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-4214 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4214 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: tools > Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha > Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe > Assignee: Colin Patrick McCabe > Priority: Trivial > Attachments: HDFS-4214.001.patch > > > OfflineEditsViewer should print out the offset at which it encountered an > error.
