[jira] [Created] (HDFS-5935) New Namenode UI FS browser should throw smarter error messages

Travis Thompson created HDFS-5935:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: New Namenode UI FS browser should throw smarter error messages
                 Key: HDFS-5935
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5935
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: namenode
    Affects Versions: 2.3.0
            Reporter: Travis Thompson
            Priority: Minor


When browsing using the new FS browser in the namenode, if I try to browse a folder that I don't have permission to view, it throws the error:

{noformat}
Failed to retreive data from /webhdfs/v1/system?op=LISTSTATUS, cause: Forbidden

WebHDFS might be disabled. WebHDFS is required to browse the filesystem.
{noformat}

The reason I'm not allowed to see /system is because I don't have permission, not because WebHDFS is disabled.
