Xiaobing Zhou commented on HIVE-7295:
-------------------------------------

After digging, AuthorizationException is thrown inside 
HdfsAuthorizationProvider.checkPermissions(final FileSystem fs...) because 
permissions to operate on DB path are not met. FileStatus.getOwner gives out 
name of group, not user name expected for permission check going through. e.g. 
Administrators, not xzhou. 

FileStatus.getGroup also returns group like machine-name\None, which does not 
match group the user running program belongs to, operation on the path not 
permitted.



> FileStatus.getOwner on Windows returns name of group the user belongs to, 
> instead of user name expected, fails many authorization related unit tests
