I too have experienced this issue with Ranger 0.4. Assigning policies to groups does not work!! Instead you have to assign policies to each individual user. Is there a fix for this?
Thanks -------- Original message -------- From: Arvind S <[email protected]> Date: 31/07/2015 07:45 (GMT+00:00) To: [email protected] Subject: issue with Group permissions in Ranger hi . I have configured Ranger (4.0) on my 4 node node HDP 2.2.6 cluster. User sync and validation is through windows AD (2008). ----WHAT WORKS----- Designated users and corresponding groups are successfully sync'd into ranger admin. I am able to login with my AD id/pass into ranger as user.. i also see appropriate groups associated to each user. ---- ISSUES ------ When i assign HDFS policy to groups the same is not effective and gives me access denied on the resource. But if same policy is assigned to the users directly then i am able to access the resource. Does any one have hints to help on this? in addition to this .. while AD imported users are marked as "external" ..the groups are getting marked as "internal" . ... Ranger admin/ portal access logs are not helping much .. Thanks in Advance !!
