Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-8414: ------------------------------------- {quote}bq. Could you please do the same testing with InetAddress.getByName("localhost") to ensure that something else isn't botching the hostname to 127.0.0.1? @Daryn: Same result as with null.{quote} If I understand correctly: # {{InetAddress.getByName("localhost").getHostName()}} returns {{localhost}} # {{new InetSocketAddress("localhost", port).getHostName()}} returns {{127.0.0.1}}?? If however #2 is also returning {{localhost}} as expected, then it means there's probably something wrong in {{FsShell}} or {{DistributedFileSystem}}'s handling of the URI. As for host-based tokens, {{TestSecurityUtil}} _should_ catch problems, but there's a jira where I have to bring over a slew of more tests from 205 that would be more definitive. PS. You can use "bq." or "\{quote\}" on prior statements. It's a bit easier to read than inline responses. If you click the (?), there's a lot of simple and useful formatting available. > Address problems related to localhost resolving to 127.0.0.1 on Windows > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8414 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8414 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: fs, test > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Ivan Mitic > Assignee: Ivan Mitic > Attachments: HADOOP-8414-branch-1-win.patch, > HADOOP-8414-branch-1-win.patch > > > Localhost resolves to 127.0.0.1 on Windows and that causes the following > tests to fail: > - TestHarFileSystem > - TestCLI > - TestSaslRPC > This Jira tracks fixing these tests and other possible places that have > similar issue. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
