buptljy commented on FLINK-10202: --------------------------------- [~StephanEwen] Here is my code. I think the checkpoint directory in CheckpointCoordinator is still empty even if you set direcotry in FsStateBackend. {code:java} val env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment env.enableCheckpointing(15000) env.getCheckpointConfig.enableExternalizedCheckpoints(ExternalizedCheckpointCleanup.RETAIN_ON_CANCELLATION) env.setStateBackend(new FsStateBackend(checkpointDir)){code} 1. If I don't set state.checkpoint.dir, it will throw exception above. 2. If i remove the third line, it will be okay. > Enable configuration for state.checkpoint.dir in StreamExecutionEnvironment > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-10202 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10202 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: buptljy > Priority: Major > > Usually we can set state.checkpoint.dir in flink-conf.yaml, but sometimes we > run a flink job locally, and we're not able to set state.checkpoint.dir for > background wrapped cluster, which will cause > {code:java} > throw new IllegalStateException("CheckpointConfig says to persist periodic " + > "checkpoints, but no checkpoint directory has been configured.
