Bowen Zhang commented on HADOOP-10078:
--------------------------------------
After HADOOP-10078, oozie kill/suspend and proxyUser service throw "user[?]
null" error under non-secure environment while not using auth-token file. The
root cause is that Kerberos Authenticator fails to fall back to
PseudoAuthenticator to set the token for user, therefore the server side code
doesn't know who the user is.

> This means that it was always either calling {{doSpnegoSequence(token);}}
> or {{getFallBackAuthenticator().authenticate(url, token);}}, which is
> actually the old behavior that existed before HADOOP-8855 changed it in the
> first place.
> In any case, I tried removing the "Authorization" check and Oozie still works
> with and without Kerberos; the NPE reported in OOZIE-1010 has since been
> properly fixed due as a side effect for a similar issue in OOZIE-1368.
