[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-2072) RawLocalFileStatus is causing Path problems

Dennis Kubes commented on HADOOP-2072:
--------------------------------------

Ok, so this is NOT a problem in RawLocalFileStatus as much as it is a mismatch between newer code in Path handling that deals with resources mainly as URIs and older code in Nutch which deals with local files as File objects.  The solution to this is to change older code to be translated first into URIs then from there to local files.  This is an example:

URI fileUri = file.toUri();
new File(fileUri).toString()

I will mark this issue resolved and it can be closed.

> In RawLocalFileStatus of the RawLocalFileSystem class, files were getting changed to URIs then to string which would cause some files to appear as C:/somethingfile://anotherpath.  This is a simple change and it just needs to be converted as toString and opposed to toUri().toString().  The problem area is line 324 of the org.apache.hadoop.fs.RawLocalFileSystem.java file.  I am testing a patch currently and will submit as soon as it passes all current unit tests.
