Dmytro Molkov commented on HDFS-1109:
-------------------------------------
Well, it will essentially serve the same purpose. We could either url encode
and decode that parameter being passed to streamFile servlet. Or change it to
be url path instead of url parameter. Since all other HFTP operations pass the
path of the file as the url path changing the streaming servlet to follow the
same logic.

> Key: HDFS-1109
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1109
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.20.1, 0.20.2, 0.20.3, 0.21.0, 0.22.0

> 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?
