> Key: HAWQ-33
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-33
> Project: Apache HAWQ
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Command Line Tools
> Reporter: Radar Lei
> Assignee: Radar Lei
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.0-beta-incubating
>
>
> During init of a postgres instance, initdb logs are generated and placed
> under parent of the hawq directory input provied. Ex: If we mentioned
> /data/hawq-master, log generated will be /data/hawq-master.initdb. It
> suggests that /data should have write permission for gpadmin.
> Consider, if the user has provided the directory as /hawq-master, which will
> require '/' root directory to have permission for gpadmin to write the logs,
> which will be unacceptable at many customer's site.
> We should change the location of the initdb logs created and they should be
> under /tmp or /home/gpadmin/hawqAdminLogs or some other directory.
> ```
> selecting default max_connections ... sh: /data/hawq-master.initdb:
> Permission denied
> initdb: error 256 from: "/usr/local/hawq-2.0.0.0/bin/postgres" --boot -x0 -F
