---------------------------------
Summary: Webhdfs PUT operations may not work via a http proxy
Key: HDFS-6217
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6217
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: webhdfs
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 3.0.0
Reporter: Daryn Sharp
Assignee: Daryn Sharp
Most of webhdfs's PUT operations have no message body. The HTTP/1.1 spec is
fuzzy in how PUT requests with no body should be handled. If the request does
not specify chunking or Content-Length, the server _may_ consider the request
to have no body. However, popular proxies such as Apache Traffic Server will
reject PUT requests with no body unless Content-Length: 0 is specified.
