             Summary: HttpFS build should download Tomcat via Maven instead of directly
                 Key: HDFS-3866
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3866
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha
         Environment: CDH4 build on CentOS 6.2
            Reporter: Ryan Hennig
            Priority: Minor


When trying to enable a build of CDH4 in Jenkins, I got a build error due to an attempt to download Tomcat from the internet directly instead of via Maven and thus our internal Maven repository.

The problem is due to this line in src/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs-httpfs/target/antrun/build-main.xml:
  <get dest="downloads/tomcat.tar.gz" skipexisting="true" verbose="true" src="http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.32/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.32.tar.gz"/>

This build.xml is generated from src/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs-httpfs/pom.xml:
<get src="http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-6/v${tomcat.version}/bin/apache-tomcat-${tomcat.version}.tar.gz"  dest="downloads/tomcat.tar.gz" verbose="true" skipexisting="true"/>

Instead of directly downloading from a hardcoded location, the Tomcat dependency should be managed by Maven.  This would enable the use of a local repository for build machines without internet access.
