Deepak Majeti commented on ARROW-5008: -------------------------------------- The ORC library does depend on the presence of '/etc/localtime'. Another workaround for Ubuntu could be something like {noformat} ln -fs /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/UTC /etc/localtime {noformat} ORC-218 aims to handle such systems where there are no timezone files. > [Python] ORC Reader Core Dumps in PyArrow if `/etc/localtime` does not exist > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-5008 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5008 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.12.0, 0.12.1 > Reporter: Keith Kraus > Priority: Major > > In docker containers it's common for `/etc/localtime` to not exist, and if it > doesn't exist it causes a file not found error which is not handled in > PyArrow. Workaround is to install `tzdata` into the container (at least for > Ubuntu), but wanted to report upstream. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
