[jira] Commented: (PIG-1424) Error logs of streaming should not be placed in output location

["Ashutosh Chauhan (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1424?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12884365#action_12884365 ] 

Ashutosh Chauhan commented on PIG-1424:
---------------------------------------

This turns out to be much more involved then I initially thought. Assumption that output/input location is a file based path exists at more then one place in Pig. In particular, Streaming kind of make this explicit assumption and has it in the semantics. We need to be careful about streaming semantics before we fix this.

> This becomes a problem when output location is anything other then a filesystem. Output will be written to DB but where the logs generated by streaming should go? Clearly, they cant be written into DB. This blocks PIG-1229 which introduces writing to DB from Pig.
