[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-9482) regression: unable to create a file in the file:/// filesystem unless HADOOP_HOME_DIR or hadoop.home.dir is set

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9482?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13634017#comment-13634017 ] 

Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-9482:
----------------------------------------

Code of mine that used to be able to create files using the {{file:///}} fs are now failing saying that I haven't set up the hadoop home directory properly. 

This appears due to HADOOP-8952; the {{chmod}} command is being treated as something that must be exec'd from {{$HADOOP_HOME/bin}} if the native libraries aren't installed. On linux, chmod is on the shell and the value of {{HADOOP_HOME_DIR}} or {{hadoop.home.dir}} is irrelevant.
