Hi there, When I run some DFS commands using the shell, I am not getting an exit value...(atleast not in python) eg: /state/partition1/hadoop-0.16.3/bin/hadoop fs -test -d '/temp/'
should return me 0 if the directory exists. I use os.system() from python to execute the commands Any ideas? regards, -- Ahmad Humayun Research Associate Computer Science Dpt., LUMS http://suraj.lums.edu.pk/~ahmadh +92 321 4457315
