Ryan Hennig commented on HDFS-3135:
-----------------------------------
I'm troubleshooting a broken build that fails on the Tomcat download, because
our Jenkins server doesn't have internet access (by design). Rather, all
components are supposed to be fetched from our internal Maven Repository
(Artifactory). So while I don't need the war file change, I do think this
direct download should be removed.
> Build a war file for HttpFS instead of packaging the server (tomcat) along
> with the application.

> Components: build

> 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.
