Build a war file for HttpFS instead of packaging the server (tomcat) along with
the application.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-3135
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3135
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Affects Versions: 0.23.2
Reporter: Ravi Prakash
There are several reason why web applications should not be packaged along with
the server that is expected to serve them. For one not all organisations use
vanilla tomcat. There are other reasons I won't go into.
I'm filing this bug because some of our builds failed in trying to download the
tomcat.tar.gz file. We then had to manually wget the file and place it in
downloads/ to make the build pass. I suspect the download failed because of an
overloaded server (Frankly, I don't really know). If someone has ideas, please
share them.
