Chris Nauroth created HADOOP-9768: ------------------------------------- Summary: chown and chgrp reject users and groups with spaces on platforms where spaces are otherwise acceptable Key: HADOOP-9768 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9768 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: fs Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 1-win, 2.1.0-beta, 1.3.0 Reporter: Chris Nauroth Assignee: Chris Nauroth
The chown and chgrp commands enforce a check on a valid set of characters for user and group. The set of valid characters does not include space. On some platforms (notably Windows), the space character is acceptable. We've seen this cause test failures in {{TestFsShellReturnCode}} when running on Windows if the logged-in user is a member of a group like Remote Desktop Users. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
