> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0, 1.4.0
> Reporter: Joseph Boyd

> Duplicating this issue from SQOOP-175, which is in the cloudera JIRA
> From SQOOP-175's description by Ken Krugler :
> On Mac OS X 10.6.3, the TestNamedFifo.testNamedFifo() test fails. The error
> is caused by the Shell.execCommand() use of mknod, since (at least on my Mac)
> mknod doesn't know about the --mode=xxx parameter or the -p parameters.
> Based on
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4546356/is-mknod-portable-if-not-what-is-the-alternative,
> I switched the code to use mkfifo and it now passes all tests.
> The change to NamedFifo.create() is trivial:
> Shell.execCommand("mkfifo", "-m", "0" + modeStr, filename);
> But I have no way of trying this out on other OSes, so it might create a
> different compatibility issue.
