Janaki Lahorani reassigned HIVE-16960: -------------------------------------- Assignee: Janaki Lahorani > Hive throws an ugly error exception when HDFS sticky bit is set > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-16960 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-16960 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Janaki Lahorani > Assignee: Janaki Lahorani > Priority: Critical > > When calling LOAD DATA INPATH ... OVERWRITE INTO TABLE ... from a Hive user > other than the HDFS file owner, and the HDFS sticky bit is set, then Hive > will throw an error exception message that the file cannot be moved due to > permission issues. > Caused by: org.apache.hadoop.security.AccessControlException: Permission > denied by sticky bit setting: user=hive, > inode=sasdata-2016-04-20-17-13-43-630-e-00001.dlv.bk > The permission denied is expected, but the error message does not make sense > to users + the stack trace displayed is huge. We should display a better > error message to users, and maybe provide with help information about how to > fix it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
