>                 Key: HBASE-2907
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2907
>             Project: HBase
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: rest
>            Reporter: Kieron Briggs
>            Assignee: Andrew Purtell
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Since 0.20.4, an attempt to create a scanner for a nonexistant table receives a "400 Bad Request" response with no furthur information. Prior to 0.20.4 it would receive a "500 org.apache.hadoop.hbase.TableNotFoundException: <table>" response with a stack trace in the body.
> Neither of these is ideal - the 400 fails to identify what aspect of the request was bad, and the 500 incorrectly suggests that the error was internal. Ideally the error should be a 400 error with information in the body identifying the nature of the problem.
