No worries, fine to ask here. You're likely running into the ZK ACL we set to prevent unauthenticated users from removing things from ZK. This is where the value you set for instance.secret comes in.

In zkCli.sh, before running your command, run the following:

addauth digest accumulo:$instance_secret

where $instance_secret is the value of instance.secret you set in accumulo-site.xml.

The command should execute successfully (without any warning output). After, you should be able to delete to your heart's content in ZK.

Just a quick question to perhaps avoid Internet scouring, but I've sudo'd
into the zk user from root on the appropriate node and trying to delete the

inappropriate for this board then I'll delete.

Using ZooKeeper 3.4.5 and the following command:
     del -r -f /accumulo/<instance_id>/tables/<table_id>

Thoughts?
