Hadoop httpFS always returns HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found

Question

I have a problem with HttpFS service of hadoop.When i try to curl some resource:

curl -i http://192.168.4.180:14000/webhdfs/v1/user/hadoop/?op=LISTSTATUS

the response i get is:

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1
Content-Length: 0
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2015 08:57:47 GMT

But when i try to do the same with webhdfs it works:

 curl -i http://192.168.4.180:50070/webhdfs/v1/user/hadoop/?op=LISTSTATUS 

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
and so on ....

Httpfs service is running on port 14000, i have checked it via nmap. Any suggestions or ideas what might be the problem?

I meet the same problem. And solved by this link

In brief, you need to add the symbol link:

# Point to the 'webapps' in current.
cd /etc/hadoop-httpfs/tomcat-deployment
ln -s /usr/hdp/current/hadoop-httpfs/webapps webapps
