Eugene Koifman created HIVE-6576: ------------------------------------ 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) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
