Seems the HDFS file path contains ':' colon will throw exception

[stevegy]

I had download this whole source code and built it successfully. When i tried to run a crawl test:
bin/crawl urls/ TestCrawl/ http://localhost:8983/solr/nutch 2
I run into this URI path name issue.
hadoop.log.zip

i have this log file attached. It seems the HDFS file path name special characters issue is still there?

Hi,

You could try the fix given in this thread.

Or simply use the following command to start the crawl:
runtime/local/bin/nutch crawl urls/ -solr http://localhost:8983/solr/ -dir TestCrawl -depth 3 -topN 50
