[jira] Created: (HBASE-2489) Make the "Filesystem needs to be
upgraded" error message more useful.
Make the "Filesystem needs to be upgraded" error message more useful.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-2489
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2489
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: util
Reporter: Benoit Sigoure
Assignee: Benoit Sigoure
Priority: Critical
Attachments: 0001-Improve-the-error-message-File-system-needs-to-be-up.patch
The other day, when starting HBase I got this error:
{noformat}
2010-04-23 09:38:14,847 ERROR org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.HMaster: Failed to start master
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.FileSystemVersionException: File system needs to be upgraded. Run the '${HBASE_HOME}/bin/hbase migrate' script.
at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.FSUtils.checkVersion(FSUtils.java:187)
{noformat}
I was puzzled until I realized, after adding extra debug statements in the code, that I forgot to properly set {{hbase.rootdir}} after re-deploying my dev environment. I think the message above was misleading and I'm proposing a trivial patch to make it a little bit better:
{noformat}

org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.FileSystemVersionException: File system needs to be upgraded. You have version null and I want version 7. Run the '${HBASE_HOME}/bin/hbase migrate' script.
