If the specific location does not exist while creating table,It'll try to make a directory which matches the location. In the process ,if the location's upper paths also don't exist,It'll find a path "PRTPATH" which is the specific location's forward path,and then create the missing paths under the PRTPATH. But It'll check all files' privilege under the PRTPATH,so even though current user has privilege on the PRTPATH,it'll fail on privilege check [root@xxx opt]# hdfs dfs -ls /tmp drwxr-xr-x - user1 hadoop 0 2015-11-03 19:14 /tmp/user1 [root@xxx opt]# hdfs dfs -ls /tmp/user1 Found 2 items drwxr-xr-x - admin hadoop 0 2015-11-03 19:14 /tmp/user1/admin_t2 drwxr-xr-x - user1 hadoop 0 2015-11-03 19:13 /tmp/user1/user1_t1 0: jdbc:hive2://167.52.0.81:21066/> create external table user1_t3(id int, name string) row format delimited fields terminated by ',' stored as textfile location '/tmp/user1/user1_t3'; Error: Error while compiling statement: FAILED: HiveAccessControlException Permission denied: Principal [name=user1, type=USER] does not have following privileges for operation CREATETABLE [[INSERT, DELETE, OBJECT OWNERSHIP] on Object [type=DFS_URI, name=hdfs://hacluster/tmp/user1/user1_t3]] (state=42000,code=40000) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
