null is displayed in the console,if the src path is invalid while doing copyToLocal operation from commandLine --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7174 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7174 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Uma Maheswara Rao G Priority: Minor When we perform copyToLocal operations from commandLine and if src Path is invalid srcFS.globStatus(srcpath) will return null. So, when we find the length of resulted value, it will *throw NullPointerException*. Since we are handling generic exception , it will display null as the message. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
