Venu Satuluri created PIG-3872: ---------------------------------- Summary: Pig should detect AccessControlException when doing a syntax check, or fail fast in actual run Key: PIG-3872 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3872 Project: Pig Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Venu Satuluri Priority: Minor
If I am attempting to write to an HDFS location that I'm not authorized to, Hadoop throws an AccessControlException. However, this can happen at the fag end of a long Pig job, leading to a lot of wasted computation. It'd be nicer if Pig can instead check for access control permissions either when doing a syntax check, or if it's an actual run, check for this at the start and fail fast. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
