Description

Currently, When we try to find the container logs for the finished application, it will re-direct to the url which we re-configured for yarn.log.server.url in yarn-site.xml. But in ContainerLogsPage, we are using meta-refresh:

        set(TITLE, join("Redirecting to log server for ", $(CONTAINER_ID)));
        html.meta_http("refresh", "1; url=" + redirectUrl);

which is not good for some browsers which need to enable the meta-refresh in their security setting, especially for IE which meta-refresh is considered a security hole.
