Allan Yan created HADOOP-9740:
---------------------------------
Summary: FsShell's Text command does not read avro data files
stored on HDFS
Key: HADOOP-9740
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9740
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: fs
Affects Versions: 2.0.5-alpha
Reporter: Allan Yan
HADOOP-8597 added support for reading avro data files from FsShell Text
command. However, it does not work with files stored on HDFS. Here is the error
message:
{code}
$hadoop fs -text hdfs://localhost:8020/test.avro
-text: URI scheme is not "file"
Usage: hadoop fs [generic options] -text [-ignoreCrc] <src> ...
{code}
The problem is because the File constructor complains not able to recognize
hdfs:// scheme in during AvroFileInputStream initialization.
There is a unit TestTextCommand.java under hadoop-common project. However it
only tested files in local file system. I created a similar one under
hadoop-hdfs project using MiniDFSCluster. Please see attached maven unit test
error message with full stack trace for more details.
