tar file contains duplicate config files in etc/ and conf/ ----------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7860 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7860 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: build Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0 Environment: Debian 6.0 x64_64 java version "1.6.0_26" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode) Reporter: stephen mulcahy Priority: Minor When I extract the hadoop tar file download for 0.20.205.0 I notice that it contains a set of configuration files in conf/ and what seem to be a duplicate set in etc/hadoop. There is no indication in the docs of why there are two copies of these files. In practice, the contents of conf/ seem to be used, not etc/hadoop. I would suggest removing one of these or else clarifying their purpose. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
