Harsh J created HADOOP-10002: -------------------------------- Summary: Tool's config option wouldn't work on secure clusters Key: HADOOP-10002 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10002 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: security, util Affects Versions: 2.0.6-alpha Reporter: Harsh J Priority: Minor
The Tool framework provides a way for clients to run without classpath *-site.xml configs, by letting users pass "-conf <file>" to parse into the app's Configuration object. In a secure cluster config setup, such a runner will not work cause of UserGroupInformation.isSecurityEnabled() check, which is used in Server.java to determine what form of communication to use, will load statically a {{new Configuration()}} object to inspect if security is turned on during its initialization, which ignores the application config object and tries to load from classpath and ends up loading non-secure defaults. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
