Prasad Mujumdar commented on HIVE-5486:
---------------------------------------
[~thejas] If /tmp/scratchdir exists with permissions for all users, the things
work fine.
Otherwise the first session will create /tmp/scratchdir and its own sessions
specific sub-directory under that. In this case the /tmp/scratchdir itself is
owned by the first user and created with default permissions (typically 755).
Then the subsequent sessions can't write to /tmp/scratchdir
> HiveServer2 should create base scratch directories at startup

> With impersonation enabled, the same base directory is used by all
> sessions/queries. For a new deployment, this directory gets created on first
> invocation by the user running that session. This would cause directory
> permission conflict for other users.
> HiveServer2 should create the base scratch dirs if it doesn't exist.
