Gera Shegalov created HDFS-6193: ----------------------------------- Summary: HftpFileSystem open should throw FileNotFoundException for non-existing paths Key: HDFS-6193 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6193 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.3.0 Reporter: Gera Shegalov Assignee: Gera Shegalov Priority: Blocker
WebHdfsFileSystem.open and HftpFileSystem.open incorrectly handles non-existing paths. - 'open', does not really open anything, i.e., it does not contact the server, and therefore cannot discover FileNotFound, it's deferred until next read. It's counterintuitive and not how local FS or HDFS work. In POSIX you get ENOENT on open. [LzoInputFormat.getSplits|https://github.com/kevinweil/elephant-bird/blob/master/core/src/main/java/com/twitter/elephantbird/mapreduce/input/LzoInputFormat.java] is an example of the code that's broken because of this. - On the server side, FileDataServlet incorrectly sends SC_BAD_REQUEST instead of SC_NOT_FOUND for non-exitsing paths -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
