Arpit Gupta commented on HDFS-2460:
-----------------------------------
Also i think we should throw an error before redirect in the case when the user
does not have priv to write to the dir or file.
If we are doing a redirect should we not check all the conditions before the
redirect?
> webhdfs returns content type text/html when an error is thrown, we should
> return application/json

> overwrite
> Actual Content type returned:

> This seems similar to the earlier bug where we had 2 content types being
