Jason Lowe created HADOOP-9929: ---------------------------------- Summary: Insufficient permissions for a path reported as file not found Key: HADOOP-9929 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9929 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: fs Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha Reporter: Jason Lowe
Using "hadoop fs -ls" to list a path where the permissions of a parent directory are insufficient ends up reporting "no such file or directory" on the full path rather than reporting the permission issue. For example: {noformat} $ hadoop fs -ls /user/abc/tests/data ls: `/user/abc/tests/data': No such file or directory $ hadoop fs -ls /user/abc ls: Permission denied: user=somebody, access=READ_EXECUTE, inode="/user/abc":abc:hdfs:drwx------ {noformat} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
