Unable to copy file from NIFI to HDFS

[#1]

I am trying to copy a file from Sandbox to HDFS using NIFI. File is succesfully picked up from NIFI using GetFile Processor but PutHDFS is not getting finished and its in progress for long time.

Let me share the configuration for the GetFile and PutHDFS:

GetFile

PutHDFS

I have placed the core-site.xml and hdfs-site.xml into NIFI root. And also I have created a folder MyData in HDFS (hadoop fs -mkdir /MyData) to output the file.

Try providing the absolute path to your core-site.xml and hdfs-site.xml files in the putHDFS processor. Make sure these two files are readable by the user running your NiFi. Tail your nifi-app.log before staring the processor to see if it throws any error or warn log messages.

Thanks,

Did changing to absolute paths resolve your issue here?

If so, please mark answer as accepted.
