Benoy Antony created HADOOP-8923:
------------------------------------
Summary: WEBUI shows an intermediatory page when the cookie
expires.
Key: HADOOP-8923
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8923
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: security
Affects Versions: 1.1.0
Reporter: Benoy Antony
Assignee: Benoy Antony
Priority: Minor
The WEBUI does Authentication (SPNEGO/Custom) and then drops a cookie.
Once the cookie expires, the webui displays a page saying that "authentication
token expired". The user has to refresh the page to get authenticated again.
This page can be avoided and the user can authenticated without showing such a
page to the user.
Also the when the cookie expires, a warning is logged. But there is no need to
log this as this is not of any significance.
