Hi Hari,
Finally I got it working.I am not sure what was missing in my earlier
configuration. My configuration might not have used by the instance agent
because of the way CDH uses inheritances on agent configuration. Thanks for
all your help.
tier1.sinks.sink1.type = hdfs
tier1.sinks.sink1.hdf
The Avro Sink is used for comunication between Flume agents. To directly insert
into HDFS you simply use an Avro Serializer with the HDFS sink.
Thanks,
Hari

Hi Hari ,
I tried using an avro sink after HTTPSource and then an avro source and
hdfs sink and it seems to be working. Do we have to use an avro sink first
or can we directly convert to avro using HDFS sink ?
Thanks, Deepak

There was a mistake in my configuration. I had hdfs infront of
serializer.
Changed
tier1.sinks.sink1.hdfs.serializer = avro_event
to tier1.sinks.sink1.serializer = avro_event
But it is still generating a sequence file. This is what I get.

Thanks Hari.
I speficied the fileType. This is what I have. I will try again and let
you know.
tier1.sources = httpsrc1
tier1.channels = c1
tier1.sinks= sink1
tier1.sources.httpsrc1.bind = 127.0.0.1
tier1.sources.httpsrc1.type = http
tier1.sources.httpsrc1.port =
tier1.sources.htt
The default data type for HDFS Sink is Sequence file. Set the hdfs.fileType to
DataStream. See details here:

I tried using the HDFS Sink to generate the avro file by using the
serializer as avro_event. But it is not generating avro file. But a
sequence file. Is it not suppose to generate a avro file with default
schema ? Or do I have to generate the avro data from text in my
HTTPHandler source ?

Hi ,
I want to convert xml files in text to an avro file and store it in hdfs .
I get the xml files as a post request. I extended the HTTPHandler to
process the XML post request. Do I have to convert the data in text to avro
in HTTPHandler or does the Avro Sink or HDFSSink convert it directly to
