Tsz-wo Sze updated HDFS-17040:
------------------------------
Component/s: ui
Description:
When uploading a file using -WebHDFS- the Namenode web UI, it will set the
content type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded, as this is the default used
by jQuery
https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/160b9fc3c9255024c00d487b7fcdf5ea59a42781/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/webapps/hdfs/explorer.js#L516
This causes knox to urlencode the request body so that uploading a CVS file
1,2,3 will result 1%2C2%2C3.
Instead of application/x-www-form-urlencoded I think the encoding should be set
to application/octet-stream.

Summary: Namenode UI should set content type to
application/octet-stream when uploading a file (was: WebHDFS UI should set
content type to application/octet-stream when uploading a file)
WebHDFS is a [REST
API|https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/WebHDFS.html]
which does not have a UI. The
[explorer.js|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/160b9fc3c9255024c00d487b7fcdf5ea59a42781/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/webapps/hdfs/explorer.js#L516]
file is from the Namenode web UI, which was designed many years ago to be used
by a human with a browser. The Namenode web UI is never a public API. It
probably is not following the http standard very strictly. Of course, we
should fix this problem.
[~amagyar], thanks a lot for filing this JIRA!
