Eli Collins reopened HDFS-3577:
-------------------------------
Thanks Nicholas. This needs to be fixed in branch-1 as well, mind posting a
patch? IMO this is a 1.1 blocker as w/o it we've broken compat with earlier 20
releases and you can't distcp with webdhfs.
> WebHdfsFileSystem can not read files larger than 24KB

> If reading a file large enough for which the httpserver running
> webhdfs/httpfs uses chunked transfer encoding (more than 24K in the case of
> webhdfs), then the WebHdfsFileSystem client fails with an IOException with
> message *Content-Length header is missing*.
> It looks like WebHdfsFileSystem is delegating opening of the inputstream to
> *ByteRangeInputStream.URLOpener* class, which checks for the *Content-Length*
> header, but when using chunked transfer encoding the *Content-Length* header
> is not present and the *URLOpener.openInputStream()* method thrown an
> exception.
