---------------------------------
Summary: Address file ownership issue for users in Administrators
group on Windows.
Key: HADOOP-8457
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8457
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.1.0, 0.24.0
Reporter: Chuan Liu
Priority: Minor
On Linux, the initial file owners are the creators. (I think this is true in
general. If there are exceptions, please let me know.) On Windows, the file
created by a user in the Administrators group has the initial owner
‘Administrators’, i.e. the the Administrators group is the initial owner of the
file. As a result, this leads to an exception when we check file ownership in
SecureIOUtils .checkStat() method. As a result, this method is disabled right
now. We need to address this problem and enable the method on Windows.
