That did not work, same error comes up.
So , I tried bin/hadoop fs -chmod -R 755 /tmp/hadoop-Sudhir/mapred/staging/sudhir-1664368101/.staging - as well However next run would give 13/07/06 14:09:46 ERROR security.UserGroupInformation: PriviledgedActionException as:Sudhir cause:java.io.IOException: Failed to set permissions of path: \tmp\hadoop-Sudhir\mapred\staging\Sudhir1731506911\.staging to 0700 java.io.IOException: Failed to set permissions of path: \tmp\hadoop-Sudhir\mapred\staging\Sudhir1731506911\.staging to 0700 Thanks Sudhir ________________________________ From: Azuryy Yu <azury...@gmail.com> To: user@hadoop.apache.org; "sudhir543-...@yahoo.com" <sudhir543-...@yahoo.com> Sent: Saturday, 6 July 2013 11:01 AM Subject: Re: New to hadoop - which version to start with ? hadoop fs -chmod -R 755 \tmp\hadoop-Sudhir\mapred\staging Then It should works.
