-------------------------------------

             Summary: Throw useful exception when workflow/coordinator/bundle file path is > 255 chars
                 Key: FALCON-1271
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FALCON-1271
             Project: Falcon
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: oozie
    Affects Versions: 0.6.1
            Reporter: Balu Vellanki
            Assignee: Balu Vellanki
             Fix For: 0.7


Falcon uses Oozie as its workflow engine and Oozie has a 255 char limit on the length of path of workflow/coordinator/bundle files. This limit occurs because oozie stores the path in a OpenJPA database which has  255 char limit for this column. 

Instead of failing with a hard to understand error during run time, it makes sense for Falcon to check the length of path and throw a more useful exception when an entity is scheduled.
