> The crawl script that comes with all the version of Nutch I have checked set the local/distributed operating mode using a relative path (i.e. "../*nutch-*.job").
> Bash seems to be taking this as relative to the location that the crawl script was called from, not the scripts actual location.
> The result is that the script thinks it is in local mode because it cannot find the job file.  When trying to carry out a crawl jobs are submitted to Hadoop properly, but ifs that test for local (or not) mode fail and give strange results/result in crashes.
> Using the first bash snippet from [here|https://stackoverflow.com/a/246128] I have modified the crawl script to look for a job file relative to the script location on disk.
> I have attached a patch with my modifications.
