Harsh J commented on HADOOP-8055:
---------------------------------

Eric - The absence of a core-site.xml means the core-default.xml alone is loaded, and it has an fs.defaultFS in it set to file:/// OOB.

However, I agree our log messages, and our guards can be even better. Could you file another JIRA with your suggestions? I'll be happy discuss and carry it over from there :)

> A dist built from trunk (0.24.0-SNAPSHOT) does not contain a core-site.xml in $HADOOP_HOME/etc/hadoop/ folder.
> $HADOOP_HOME/sbin/start-dfs.sh without that folder gives an exception
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URI has an authority component
>  at java.io.File.<init>(File.java:368)
>  at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.NNStorage.getStorageDirectory(NNStorage.java:310)
>  at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.FSEditLog.init(FSEditLog.java:178)
> ...
> Manually creating $HADOOP_HOME/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml solves this problem and hadoop starts fine.
