[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-3592) DistCp should not setTimes on directories

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3592?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13267770#comment-13267770 ] 

lohit giri commented on MAPREDUCE-3592:
---------------------------------------

i can see the exceptions still coming when there is a new file gets copied. Job finishes fine but Distp client still throws this exception.

>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: distcp
>    Affects Versions: 0.22.0
>            Reporter: Konstantin Shvachko
>
> On finalize() stage DistCp attempts to updateDestStatus(), which includes calling setTimes(). In HDFS setTimes() is not supported for directories, therefore DistCp fails if there are directories in the tree.
> It looks the failure occurs only when there are no files to copy.
