> I followed the example from
> http://hortonworks.com/blog/introduction-apache-falcon-hadoop, where all
> locations (i.e. staging, working, temp) of the cluster are set to the same
> directory.
> {code}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <cluster colo="toronto" description="Primary Cluster"
> (...)
> <locations>
> <location name="staging" path="/tmp/falcon"/>
> <location name="working" path="/tmp/falcon"/>
> <location name="temp" path="/tmp/falcon"/>
> </locations>
> </cluster>
> {code}
> When submitting such a cluster entity, I got:
> {code}
> bash-4.1$ ./bin/falcon entity -submit -type cluster -file cluster.xml

> if (locationName.equals("temp")) {
> continue;

> try {
> checkPathOwnerAndPermission(cluster.getName(),

> "staging".equals(locationName)
> ? HadoopClientFactory.ALL_PERMISSION
> :
> HadoopClientFactory.READ_EXECUTE_PERMISSION);
> } catch (IOException e) {
> (...)
> }
> }
> {code}
> This basically means:
> * staging directory must have exactly ALL permissions
> * execute directory must have exactly READ_EXECUTE permissions
> If the staging and execute directories are the same, then we have the
> misconfiguration that is hard to detect based on the current message.
> Therefore:
> * a better (less confusing) message could be printed
> * or, code could be fixed that execute directory should have at least (not
> exactly) READ_EXECUTE permissions.
