Getting Exception in argument --table-list. Its not finding that input file which I am passing to it

[Vishal Agrawal]

I am getting the below exception when I am trying to run the replication job through hadoop jar command. 

--table-list argument is not accepting the input file which I am passing. Can someone please check and help.? Does that need to be in hdfs or in local file system. I tried both but nothing worked.

I also don't see the reair_*** folder anywhere in hdfs ? 

Exception in thread "main" org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.input.InvalidInputException: Input path does not exist: hdfs://<hostname>:8020/tmp/hive_replication/reair_1502115238006_19baa001-a152-4901-b3ba-003e39c7c6cf/abc.txt

What is the argument you passed to table-list? Can you try file://yourlocalpath ?
