Description

For query in test case fs_default_name1.q:

set fs.default.name='http://www.example.com;
show tables;

The following error message is returned:

FAILED: IllegalArgumentException null

The message is not very meaningful, and has "null" in it.

It would be better if we can provide detailed error message.
