HFTP and URL Encoding
---------------------
Key: HDFS-1109
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1109
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.20.2, 0.20.1, 0.20.3, 0.21.0, 0.22.0
Reporter: Dmytro Molkov
We just saw this error happen in our cluster. If there is a file that has a "+"
sign in the name it is not readable through HFTP protocol.
The problem is when we are reading a file with HFTP we are passing a name of
the file as a parameter in request and + gets undecoded into space on the
server side. So the datanode receiving the streamFile request tries to access a
file with space instead of + in the name and doesn't find that file.
The proposed solution is to pass the filename as a part of URL as with all the
other HFTP commands, since this is the only place where it is not being treated
this way. Are there any objections to this?
