> NiFi GetFile processor silently refuses to work if write permission is not

> Key: NIFI-2919
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2919
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Oleg Zhurakousky
> Assignee: Oleg Zhurakousky
> Fix For: 1.1.0
>
>
> GetFile processor requires write permission to its input directory.
> For example, if nifi is started by a user named 'nifi' (which is the case in
> Ambari environment), and if the input directory does not give write
> permission to user 'nifi', the processor simply stop working without giving
> warning or error messages. From the end user's perspective, it is confusing.
> I'd like to improve the user's experience by providing some check and
> warning. It is similar to the check of the existence of the input directory.
> If the input directory is not present, GetFile already gives error messages
> to the user. The same check can be done for directory permission.
