Steve Loughran created YARN-2677: ------------------------------------ Summary: registry punycoding of usernames doesn't fix all usernames to be DNS-valid Key: YARN-2677 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2677 Project: Hadoop YARN Issue Type: Sub-task Affects Versions: 2.6.0 Reporter: Steve Loughran Assignee: Steve Loughran
The registry has a restriction "DNS-valid names only" to retain the future option of DNS exporting of the registry. to handle complex usernames, it punycodes the username first, using Java's {{java.net.IDN}} class. This turns out to only map high unicode-> ASCII, and does nothing for ascii-but-invalid-hostname chars, so stopping users with DNS-illegal names (e.g. with an underscore in them) from being able to register -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
