Tsuyoshi OZAWA commented on HADOOP-9844:
----------------------------------------
Thanks Steve for reporting the critical issue. +1 for Jason's suggestion. It's
better to switch at following line in setupReponse. We should also update
javadoc that error message cannot be null.
{code}
headerBuilder.setErrorMsg(error);
{code}

> I'm seeing an NPE which is raised when the server is trying to create an
> error response to send back to the caller and there is no error text.
> The root cause is probably somewhere in SASL, but sending something back to
> the caller would seem preferable to NPE-ing server-side.
