[jira] Created: (HADOOP-149) TaskTracker#unJar trashes file modes

TaskTracker#unJar trashes file modes
------------------------------------

         Key: HADOOP-149
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-149
     Project: Hadoop
        Type: Bug

    Versions: 0.2    
 Environment: linux
    Reporter: stack@archive.org
    Priority: Minor


Last Changed Rev: 395069

The unJar'ing of the job 'jar', trashes any file modes I've lovingly set at zip time.  This is a bit of a pain when my job wants to run external scripts and I want to bundle the scripts up in the jar itself for distribution out to slaves.

I ain't sure how to address the issue though. Nought about unix file modes in JarEntry nor ZipEntry.  I tried the ant 1.6.5 task unjar and unzip tasks thinking they'd respect file modes but they do same as TaskTracker#unJar (Commons zip makes mention of unix file modes but I haven't tried it).  Perhaps support for jobs as tar(.gz) bundles?  (But again, couldn't use ant to untar. It does same as unzip/unjar trashing file permissions).

[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-149) TaskTracker#unJar trashes file modes

Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-149:
-------------------------------------

Yes, this is a pain.  I think the root of the problem is that file modes are not cross-platform, so Java doesn't have an API to access them.

As a work-around, can you, instead of directly invoking your scripts, invoke '/bin/bash myScript.sh'?  That way you don't require things to be executable.

------------------------------------------

That'll do.  Thanks.

I'd suggest that you can close this issue.  The suggested workaround -- a /bin/bash or /usr/bin/env prefix -- will likely work for most.
