Mark Payne created NIFI-6036: -------------------------------- Summary: If a Processor is intended to be running but is invalid when NiFi starts, it cannot be udpated. Key: NIFI-6036 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6036 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Framework Reporter: Mark Payne Assignee: Mark Payne Fix For: 1.9.0
To reproduce, create a GetFile processor and point it to `./data` and create that directory. Start the processor. Stop NiFi and rename the directory. Start NiFi again. On restart, the Processor will be invalid. If you rename the directory back to `./data` then the processor will become valid and run. However, if instead you attempt to update the Processor to point to a different directory, it will give an error saying that the Processor cannot be updated because it is not stopped. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
