Harsh J created HDFS-4983:
-----------------------------
Summary: Numeric usernames do not work with WebHDFS FS
Key: HDFS-4983
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4983
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: webhdfs
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha
Reporter: Harsh J
Per the file
hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/web/resources/UserParam.java,
the DOMAIN pattern is set to: {{^[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9._-]*[$]?$}}.
Given this, using a username such as "123" seems to fail for some reason (tried
on insecure setup):
{code}
[123@host-1 ~]$ whoami
123
[123@host-1 ~]$ hadoop fs -fs webhdfs://host-2.domain.com -ls /
-ls: Invalid value: "123" does not belong to the domain
^[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9._-]*[$]?$
Usage: hadoop fs [generic options] -ls [-d] [-h] [-R] [<path> ...]
{code}
