Harsh J resolved HDFS-13. ------------------------- Resolution: Duplicate The latter problem you describe is seen frequently as well, when one tries to query the NameNode with a path that includes the IP instead of hostname. Wijnand - Do you have a backwards-compatible solution in mind as well? Also, am marking this as a duplicate as the ideal JIRA should be HADOOP-3257. Lets discuss on that one. > filenames with ':' colon throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-13 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Lohit Vijayarenu > Attachments: 2066_20071022.patch, HADOOP-2066.patch > > > File names containing colon ":" throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException > while LINUX file system supports it. > $ hadoop dfs -put ./testfile-2007-09-24-03:00:00.gz filenametest > Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: > java.net.URISyntaxException: Relative path in absolute > URI: testfile-2007-09-24-03:00:00.gz > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path.initialize(Path.java:140) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path.<init>(Path.java:126) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path.<init>(Path.java:50) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileUtil.checkDest(FileUtil.java:273) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileUtil.copy(FileUtil.java:117) > at > org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.copyFromLocalFile(FileSystem.java:776) > at > org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.copyFromLocalFile(FileSystem.java:757) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FsShell.copyFromLocal(FsShell.java:116) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FsShell.run(FsShell.java:1229) > at org.apache.hadoop.util.ToolBase.doMain(ToolBase.java:187) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FsShell.main(FsShell.java:1342) > Caused by: java.net.URISyntaxException: Relative path in absolute URI: > testfile-2007-09-24-03:00:00.gz > at java.net.URI.checkPath(URI.java:1787) > at java.net.URI.<init>(URI.java:735) > at org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path.initialize(Path.java:137) > ... 10 more > Path(String pathString) when given a filename which contains ':' treats it as > URI and selects anything before ':' as > scheme, which in this case is clearly not a valid scheme. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
