------------------------------------
Thanks [~hshreedharan], I have opened a pull request for this change.
> Wrapping the exception into SecurityException in UGIExecutor.execute hides
> the original one
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLUME-3049
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-3049
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Denes Arvay
> Assignee: Denes Arvay
>
> see:
> https://github.com/apache/flume/blob/trunk/flume-ng-auth/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/auth/UGIExecutor.java#L49
> This has unexpected side effects as the callers try to catch the wrapped
> exception, for example in {{BucketWriter.append()}}:
> https://github.com/apache/flume/blob/trunk/flume-ng-sinks/flume-hdfs-sink/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/sink/hdfs/BucketWriter.java#L563
> I don't know the original intend behind this wrapping, [~jrufus] or
> [~hshreedharan], do you happen to remember? (You were involved in the
> original implementation in FLUME-2631)
> Right now I don't see any problem in removing this and letting the original
> exception to propagate as the {{org.apache.flume.auth.SecurityException}}
> doesn't appear anywhere in the public interface.
