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

             Summary: KerberosAuthenticator always does SPNEGO
                 Key: HADOOP-10078
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10078
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha
            Reporter: Robert Kanter
            Assignee: Robert Kanter
            Priority: Minor


HADOOP-8883 made this change to {{KerberosAuthenticator}}

{code}
to fix OOZIE-1010.  However, as [~aklochkov] pointed out recently, this 
inadvertently made the if statement always false because it turns out that the 
JDK excludes some headers, including the "Authorization" one that we're 
checking (see discussion 
[here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8883?focusedCommentId=13807596&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13807596]).
  This means that it was always either calling {{doSpnegoSequence(token);}} or 
{{getFallBackAuthenticator().authenticate(url, token);}}, which is actually the 
old behavior that existed before HADOOP-8855 changed it in the first place.

In any case, I tried removing the "Authorization" check and Oozie still works 
with and without Kerberos; the NPE reported in OOZIE-1010 has since been 
properly fixed due as a side effect for a similar issue in OOZIE-1368.
