Wei-Chiu Chuang created HDFS-9515: ------------------------------------- Summary: NPE in TestDFSZKFailoverController due to binding exception in MiniDFSCluster.initMiniDFSCluster() Key: HDFS-9515 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9515 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Environment: Jenkins Reporter: Wei-Chiu Chuang Assignee: Wei-Chiu Chuang Priority: Minor
If MiniDFSCluster constructor throws an exception, the cluster object is not assigned, so shutdown() call not be called on the object. I saw in a recent Jenkins job where binding error threw an exception, and later on the NPE of cluster.shutdown() hid the real cause of the test failure. HDFS-9333 has a patch that fixes the bind error. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
