Chip Salzenberg commented on HBASE-7464: ---------------------------------------- I think I found a way: http://java.net/jira/browse/JERSEY-1189?focusedCommentId=341322&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_341322 a related Jersey bug report, in which a maintainer suggests to "supply a dummy entity to the response - then nothing gets overwritten/reset by the container." e.g. {noformat} return Response.status(Response.Status.NOT_FOUND).cacheControl(getCacheControl()).type("text/plain").entity("404 Not Found").build(); {noformat} Does this work for Stargate? > Sending HTML for 404 is unhelpul; please send short text, or no text, on > errors > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-7464 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7464 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: REST > Affects Versions: 0.96.0, 0.94.5 > Reporter: Chip Salzenberg > Assignee: Andrew Purtell > Priority: Minor > > The large HTML 404 page returned by Stargate is not helpful. The REST > interface is not intended for humans to read, esp. when the client is known > to be a program because it's asking for binary, but really any time. Nice > big readable error pages use bandwidth and clutter network traces to no > purpose. > Please allow the 404 and other error pages to be configured away, or just > stop sending them (my preference). If some body must be sent, a simple > text/plain "Not found" would be fine, I think. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
