Karthik Palaniappan created HDFS-9302:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: WebHDFS throws NullPointerException if newLength is not
provided
Key: HDFS-9302
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9302
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HDFS
Affects Versions: 2.7.1
Environment: Centos6
Reporter: Karthik Palaniappan
Priority: Minor
$ curl -X POST "http://namenode:50070/webhdfs/v1/foo?op=truncate"
{"RemoteException":{"exception":"NullPointerException","javaClassName":"java.lang.NullPointerException","message":null}}
We should change newLength to be a required parameter in the webhdfs
documentation
(https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.7.1/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/WebHDFS.html#New_Length),
and throw an IllegalArgumentException if isn't provided.
