[jira] Commented: (NUTCH-638) Launching Distributed Searchers with URI indicating filesystem to use rather than relying on hadoop config files.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-638?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12639058#action_12639058 ] 

Andrzej Bialecki  commented on NUTCH-638:
-----------------------------------------

I think in NutchBean.java we can also use dir.getFileSystem(conf) instead of FileSystem.get(dir.toUri(), this.conf). Could you please test if this works for you? Other than that the patch looks fine.

> I wanted to conduct all index creation operations in hdfs but search from the local file system using the same cluster of machines.  I believe that this is a common use case.  
> This required either a parallel nutch install or edits (scripted or manual) to hadoop-site.xml to change the file system from hdfs to local when starting a distributed searcher service.  This minor patch makes IndexSearcher and NutchBean honor URIs as supported by hadoop 0.17 without altering existing functionality if simple paths are entered.
