Description

Reported by [e-mail] on HADOOP-14216, filing this JIRA on his behalf:

Just tracked this down as the likely cause of my S3A test failures. This is pulling in core-site.xml, which then xincludes auth-keys.xml, which finally references an absolute path, file://home/stevel/(secret)/aws-keys.xml. This is failing for me even with the latest patch in. Either transient XIncludes aren't being picked up or

Note also I think the error could be improved. 1. It's in the included file where the problem appears to lie and 2. we should really know the missing entry. Perhaps a wiki link too: I had to read the XInclude spec to work out what was going on here before I could go back to finding the cause
