Andrew Wang commented on HDFS-5269: ----------------------------------- Hey Chris, thanks for the report. I folded in a fix for this in HDFS-5190 since I was already poking around in {{CacheAdmin}}. I went with {{DistributedFileSystem}} taking a {{PathBasedCacheDescriptor}}, which it then unpacks it into a {{long}} to pass to the {{DFSClient}} API. {{CacheAdmin}} then calls the {{DFSClient}} API directly. Let me know if this works for you (a full review on HDFS-5190 would also be appreciated!). > Attempting to remove a cache directive fails with NullPointerException. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-5269 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5269 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: namenode, tools > Affects Versions: HDFS-4949 > Reporter: Chris Nauroth > Assignee: Chris Nauroth > > Any attempt to remove a cache directive via the "hdfs cacheadmin -removePath" > command fails with {{NullPointerException}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
