-----------------------------------------
Summary: Flume does not ignore comment after property name value
pair from config file
Key: FLUME-3212
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-3212
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.9.0
Reporter: Shubhangi Pardeshi
**Flume agent fails with Exception if configuration file contains comments
after property value in same line (i.e. as follows)
{code:java}
<property> = <value> #comment
{code}
i.e. config parameter value pair followed by comment
This is because flume is not ignoring these comment.
{code:java}
Example.
[root@cnode2 flume]# grep -i comment flume.conf
a1.sources.r1.type = netcat # this is inline comment
{code}
Produce below error in log
{code:java}
org.apache.flume.FlumeException: Unable to load source type: netcat # this is
inline comment, class: netcat # this is inline comment

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: netcat # this is inline comment

{code}
**Ideally flume should ignore comment while parsing configuration file and
agent should start successfully. Or config file parsing related error should be
thrown.
