Hi David,

I guess you can verify it by adding custom log statements into the Flink
code (therefore, you need to recompile Flink).
Maybe a debugger is also sufficient (if you are running Flink locally).
We are currently reworking the reading of static files for the streaming
environment. Maybe its interesting to check out the new implementation [1]
