> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-17145
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Andras Bokor
> Assignee: Andras Bokor
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: HADOOP-17145.001.patch, HADOOP-17145.002.patch,
> HADOOP-17145.003.patch, HADOOP-17145.004.patch, HADOOP-17145.005.patch

>
> Recently one of the users were misled by the message "Unauthenticated users
> are not authorized to access this page" when the user was not an admin user.
> At that point the user is authenticated but has no admin access, so it's
> actually not an authentication issue but an authorization issue.
> Also, 401 as error code would be better.
> Something like "User is unauthorized to access the page" would help to users
> to find out what is the problem during access an http endpoint.
