Andy Isaacson created HDFS-4335: ----------------------------------- Summary: dfs -mkdir /foo reports "/" rather than "/foo" in error output Key: HDFS-4335 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4335 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: hdfs-client Affects Versions: 2.0.2-alpha, 3.0.0 Reporter: Andy Isaacson Assignee: Andy Isaacson
{code} ubuntu@ubu-cdh-0:~$ hdfs dfs -mkdir /foo mkdir: Permission denied: user=ubuntu, access=WRITE, inode="/":hdfs:hadoop:drwxr-xr-x {code} It would be better if the Permission Denied message included the {{foo}} that often will help debug a failure, for example if a script constructs a path and then fails with a mysterious error message. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
