Eli Collins commented on HDFS-2235:
-----------------------------------
Per the original comment then problem is that ";" needs to be encoded in the
path otherwise HttpServletRequest#getPathInfo will strip it and following
characters out. Therefore the path needs to be encoded. Per the URI spec you
need to do this for cases for reserved URI characters that can't always map
1:1, there's no standard way of doing this because the mapping is specific to
the scheme used for the local file system. You can URL encode the whole thing,
which is how we encode path names passed as a parameters, however that loses
the hierarchy and as you say, makes it more difficult to debug.
