Description

The coordinator job does not support a start action. When a user tries to start a coordinator job, the error message is not informative.

PUT http://localhost:11000/oozie/v1/job/0000002-120711104734467-oozie-oozi-C?action=start&user.name=AAA&doAs=BBB] error[E0303], E0303: Invalid parameter value, [

{0}

] = [

{1}

]

The appropriate message should be

PUT http://localhost:11000/oozie/v1/job/0000043-120711104734467-oozie-oozi-C?action=submit&user.name=AAA&doAs=BBB] error[E0303], E0303: Invalid parameter value, [action] = [start]
org.apache.oozie.servlet.XServletException: E0303: Invalid parameter value, [action] = [start]
