    Description

      If a Hadoop client is run from inside a container like Tomcat, and the current AccessControlContext has a Subject associated with it that is not created by Hadoop, then UserGroupInformation.getCurrentUser() will throw NoSuchElementException, since it assumes that any Subject will have a hadoop User principal.
