Chris Nauroth commented on HDFS-6189:
-------------------------------------
[~umamaheswararao], the error you mentioned actually is unrelated. This comes
from HDFS attempting to parse the various configured local file system paths as
URIs. On Windows, an absolute file system path isn't necessarily a valid URI.
It's a benign error, because the code then falls back to handling it like a
file system path instead of a URI.
In real Windows deployments, I recommend that people configure using full valid
URI syntax (i.e. file://C:/Apache/Hadoop/...) to avoid the ambiguity and
prevent the log spam.
> Multiple HDFS tests fail on Windows attempting to use a test root path
> containing a colon.

> Some HDFS tests are attempting to use a test root path based on the
> test.root.dir that we've defined for use on the local file system. This
> doesn't work on Windows because of the drive spec, i.e. C:. HDFS rejects
> paths containing a colon as invalid.
