--------------------------------------

The patch looks good. Thanks for fixing this [~elek].

Similar suggestion as [~ayushtkn]. Let's remove the line number and do a prefix 
match on the string to make the test more robust.

> org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.tools.AdminHelper has a method to prettifyExceptions:
> {code}
>   static String prettifyException(Exception e) {
>     return e.getClass().getSimpleName() + ": "
>         + e.getLocalizedMessage().split("\n")[0];
>   }
> {code}
> But if e is a NPE the e.getLocalizedMessage() could be null. In that case NPE 
> will be thrown and the original error message will be lost.
