Tamas Mate updated HADOOP-17675:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Using LdapGroupsMapping with SSL enabled causes ClassNotFoundException when it 
is called through native threads, such as Apache Impala does.

When a thread is attached to the VM, the currentThread's context classloader is 
null, so when jndi internally tries to use the current thread's context 
classloader to load the socket factory implementation, the 
Class.forname(String, boolean, ClassLoader) method gets a null as the loader  
uses the bootstrap classloader.
 Meanwhile the LdapGroupsMapping class and the SslSocketFactory defined in it 
is loaded by the application classloader from its classpath.

As the bootstrap classloader does not have hadoop-common in its classpath, when 
a native thread tries to use/load the LdapGroupsMapping class it can't because 
the bootstrap loader can't load anything from hadoop-common. The correct 
solution seems to be to set the currentThread's context classloader to the 
classloader of LdapGroupsMapping class before initializing the jndi internals, 
and then reset to the original value after, with that we can ensure that the 
behaviour of other things does not change, but this failure can be avoided as 
well.

Attached the complete stacktrace to this Jira.
