[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-3070) Trash not being expunged, Trash Emptier thread gone by NPE

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3070?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12581243#action_12581243 ] 

Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-3070:
---------------------------------------

+1 for 16.2

I would also add a catch at the outer level of the run method to catch runtime exceptions.

> We noticed that the users' trash were not being expunged by the namenode. 
> jstack didn't show the Trash.Emptier thread and .out file showed 
> Exception in thread "Trash Emptier" java.lang.NullPointerException
>   at org.apache.hadoop.fs.Trash.expunge(Trash.java:146)
>   at org.apache.hadoop.fs.Trash$Emptier.run(Trash.java:233)
>   at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)
> It seems like this happens when it hits the user's directory which doesn't contain the .Trash.
