[jira] [Created] (MINIFICPP-1313) TailFile does not do a lookup during the first onTrigger if minifi is started right after a reboot

Ferenc Gerlits created MINIFICPP-1313:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: TailFile does not do a lookup during the first onTrigger if minifi is started right after a reboot
                 Key: MINIFICPP-1313
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINIFICPP-1313
             Project: Apache NiFi MiNiFi C++
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.8.0
            Reporter: Ferenc Gerlits
            Assignee: Ferenc Gerlits
             Fix For: 0.9.0


The {{last_multifile_lookup_}} field in {{TailFile}} is initialized to zero, which in most cases means "when the box was rebooted". The next listing of the input directory will happen {{lookup_frequency_}} later, which may be later than the first run of {{onTrigger()}}.

For example, if
 * minifi starts 1 minute after bootup, and
 * the TailFile processor is configured in Multifile mode, and
 * Lookup Frequency is set to 10 minutes (which is the default)

then TailFile will not do anything during the first 9 minutes.
