dimberman opened a new issue #7930: How should I run task with owner not shell owner in AIRFLOW URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/7930 **Apache Airflow version**: **Kubernetes version (if you are using kubernetes)** (use `kubectl version`): **Environment**: - **Cloud provider or hardware configuration**: - **OS** (e.g. from /etc/os-release): - **Kernel** (e.g. `uname -a`): - **Install tools**: - **Others**: **What happened**: I dont understand the "owner" in airflow. the comment of ower is "the owner of the task, using the unix username is recommended". I wrote some the following code. Default_args = { 'owner': 'max', 'depends_on_past': False, 'start_date': datetime(2016, 7, 14), 'email': ['[email protected]'], 'email_on_failure': False, 'email_on_retry': False, 'retries': 1, 'retry_delay': timedelta(minutes=5), dag = DAG('dmp-annalect', default_args=default_args, schedule_interval='30 0 * * *') task1_pigjob_basedata = """ {local_dir} /src/basedata/basedata.sh > {local_dir} /log/basedata/run_log & """.format(local_dir=WORKSPACE) task1_pigjob_basedata = BashOperator( task_id='task1_pigjob_basedata_impclk',owner='max', bash_command=pigjob_basedata_impclk, dag=dag) I used the command "airflow test dagid taskid 2016-07-20" , But I got a error, ... {bash_operator.py:77} INFO - put: Permission denied: user=airflow, .... I thought that my job ran with "max" user, but apperently , ran test using 'airflow' user . I hope if I run my task using 'max' user, how should I do. Thanks **What you expected to happen**: **How to reproduce it**: **Anything else we need to know**: Moved here from https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-357
