[jira] [Commented] (ACCUMULO-1018) Client does not give informative message when user can not read table

["John Vines (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1018?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13567773#comment-13567773 ] 

John Vines commented on ACCUMULO-1018:
--------------------------------------

With the changes made to the BatchWriter in 1.5 to provide SecurityErrorCodes, it shouldn't be that bad to extend it to also include KeyExtents or Tables they occured in. Hell, I think that's entirely possible client side since I know the impl has KeyExtent->ErrorCode pairings available to it.

> Saw this in 1.4, not sure if its an issue in later versions.
> Assume a user has an application that is reading from many tables and does not have permission to read from one table.  In this case the exception does not tell them which table they can not read from.  If not familiar with the application, it can take a while to track this issue down on a system with many tables.
