li xiang commented on HBASE-15297:
----------------------------------
Also not sure why the error is not captured by the following code in grant of
security.rb
{code}
if (table_name != nil)
tablebytes=table_name.to_java_bytes
#check if the tablename passed is actually a namespace
if (isNamespace?(table_name))
# Namespace should exist first.
namespace_name = table_name[1...table_name.length]
raise(ArgumentError, "Can't find a namespace: #{namespace_name}")
unless
namespace_exists?(namespace_name)
{code}
> error message is wrong when a non-existing namspace is specified in grant in
> hbase shell

> Key: HBASE-15297
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-15297
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: shell
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Reporter: li xiang
> Priority: Minor
>
> In HBase shell, specify a non-existing namespace in "grant" command, such as
> {code}
> hbase(main):001:0> grant 'a1', 'R', '@aaa' <--- there is no namespace
> called "aaa"
> {code}
> The error message issued is not correct
> {code}
> ERROR: Unknown namespace a1!
> {code}
> a1 is the user name, not the namespace.
> The following error message would be better
> {code}
> ERROR: Unknown namespace aaa!
> {code}
> or
> {code}
> Can't find a namespace: aaa
> {code}
