------------------------------------

             Summary: sending user.name as a form parameter in POST doesn't 
work post HADOOP-10193
                 Key: HIVE-6576
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6576
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WebHCat
            Reporter: Eugene Koifman
            Assignee: Eugene Koifman


WebHCat uses AuthFilter to handle authentication.  In simple mode that means 
using PseudoAuthenticationHandler.  Prior to HADOOP-10193, the latter handled 
user.name as form parameter in a POST request.  Now it only handles it as a 
query parameter.  

to maintain webhcat backwards compat, we need to make WebHCat still extract it 
from form param.  This will be deprecated immediately and removed in 0.15

Also, all examples in WebHCat reference manual should be updated to use 
user.name in query string from current form param (curl -d user.name=foo)
