[jira] Commented: (HBASE-3258) EOF when version file is empty

["Jean-Daniel Cryans (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3258?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12934547#action_12934547 ] 

Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-3258:
-------------------------------------------

For the record, the reason is that I was testing 0.90 with 0.20-append and since both are currently incompatible at the data transfer level (ugly ugly), the master is able to create the file but unable to write to. This HDFS-724 situation is bad.

> I thought that that kind of issue was solved a long time ago, but somehow it's there again. I'll fix by handling the EOF and also will look at that ugly NPE.
