Nifi ListFile Processor

[#1]

Hello guys,

I'm having trouble passing the input directory in configuration of ListFile Processor.

Says that directory is invalid or does not exist.

I want' to list files in my local file system in C drive and the folder is SNIRH.

Here is the pic:

Thanks

@Wynner with /var/log works! So, why doesn't work with mu shared folder...?

do you think that can be related to this error:

No, that error has nothing to do with the issue for the ListFile processor.

Maybe it has something to do with the mixed case, I am not sure since I don't have a CentOS 7 VirtualBox VM. Try changing the case to all lower case and no underscores for the mounted partition name and see if that makes a difference.

I was able to use the sf_SharedFolder path name, so that is not the issue.

Will you take snapshot of the property Input Directory with the current configuration?

The only time I am able to reproduce the error you are seeing is when I add a blank space before or after the path or when I add a carriage return in the property. Make sure there is only a single line in the property value.

Try clearing your browser cache or try deleting the processor and dropping a new ListFile processor on the graph. What version of HDF are you running?

Here is my environment where it works just fine. I am running CentOS 7.3 in VirtualBox 5.1.22 on MacOS Sierra, HDF 2.1.2.

I tried yesterday changing the name without '_' and lowered the path but still not working.

Here is the current config. of my processor:

I resolved my issue because in fact i have 3 environments, and i was ponting the listProcessor to the wrong environment.

I have my local file system Windows 8.1, with VirtualBox, running CentOS 7, and on top of CentOS i have the sandbox, and i was pointing my folder to the CentOS layer.

My /media/sf_SharedFolder was placed in CentOS and not in sandbox. I have to thank you for your help.
