Tamas Palfy created NIFI-7972: --------------------------------- Summary: TailFile reading from NFS may introduce NUL characters. Key: NIFI-7972 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7972 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Tamas Palfy
On NFS - unlike on a normal file system - we can have a file where the first chunk of bytes has not arrived yet but the second has - as some network packets can arrive out of order. In this case we get the second chunk and the first filled with NUL as a temporary value, until the real values arrive. Solution: Add a boolean property by which the user can tell the processor to yield (and try again later) whenever it encounters a NUL character. Requires caution as a file that contains NUL characters on purpose would block the processor indefinitely. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
