Arpit Gupta created HDFS-4594:
---------------------------------

             Summary: WebHDFS open sets Content-Length header to what is 
specified by length parameter rather than how much data is actually returned. 
                 Key: HDFS-4594
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4594
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha
            Reporter: Arpit Gupta


This was noticed on 2.0.3 alpha

Lets say we have a file of length x

We make an webhdfs open call specifying length=x+1

The response of the call redirected to the datanode sets the content length 
header to value x+1 rather than x.

Now this causes an error when the client tries to read the data.

For the test i was using HttpResponse.getEntity().getContent()

This failed with message "Premature end of Content-Length delimited message 
body (expected: 71898; received: 71897"

This was not seen in hadoop 1 as we did not set the content length header.
