I was following this thread for a problem I am facing while using
SortedKeyValueFiles.

Below is the piece of code that tries to obtain the appropriate writer based
on whether I am appending or creating a new file:

OutputStream dataOutputStream;
            if (!fileSystem.exists(dataFilePath)) {
                dataOutputStream = fileSystem.create(dataFilePath);
                mDataFileWriter = new
DataFileWriter<GenericRecord>(datumWriter).setSyncInterval(1 <<
20).create(mRecordSchema, dataOutputStream);
            } else {
                dataOutputStream = fileSystem.append(dataFilePath);
                mDataFileWriter = new
DataFileWriter<GenericRecord>(datumWriter).setSyncInterval(1 <<
20).appendTo(new File(options.getPath() + DATA_FILENAME));
            }

but it fails with this:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /CHANGELOG/data (No such file or directory)

So, is the avro writer it not able to locate the file on hdfs? Could you
please share some pointers what could be leading to this?
