Reading AVRO files from HDFS

[Antony Rudkin]

Hi, trying to read an avro file from HDFS but get the standard error message.

Error in avro_get_schema(file):

Error retrieving schema.  Verify that the file exists and is a valid avro.

I saw a note on another thread saying that the Ravro package does work against HDFS - is that true? or is there a fix/work around?

thanks

Any update if you could make it work.
