-----------------------------------
Summary: key shell returns -1 to the shell on error, should be 1
Key: HADOOP-10816
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10816
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: security
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Mike Yoder
I've seen this in several places now - commands returning -1 on failure to the
shell. It's a bug. Someone confused their posix style returns (0 on success, <
0 on failure) with program returns, which are an unsigned character. Thus, a
return of -1 actually becomes 255 to the shell.
{noformat}
$ hadoop key create happykey2 --provider kms://http@localhost:16000/kms --attr
"a=a" --attr "a=b"
Each attribute must correspond to only one value:
atttribute "a" was repeated
...
$ echo $?
255
{noformat}
A return value of 1 instead of -1 does the right thing.
