Pig load: deprecated property fs.default.name

Question

I have installed Hadoop 2.6.5 and I just have installed Pig 0.16 in the same machine. I ran pig and then I loaded a file using a = load '/user/hduser/input/palabras.txt'; and I got this INFO INFO org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration.deprecation - fs.default.name is deprecated. Instead, use fs.defaultFS but I am wondering why this message appeared if I have already changed that property in core-site.xml file?

I hope to be clear, please let me know if another information is required. Thank you!

Answer 1

It has nothing to with your core-site.xml. This is an issue with Pig.

Pig's HExecutionEngine.java contains this deprecated property fs.default.name.

public static final String FILE_SYSTEM_LOCATION = "fs.default.name";

This will be fixed in the upcoming versions. Refer PIG-2768.
