The most likely issue here is that you are running your tasks as a different user than the one you use to run your mesos-slave.
Can you try running mesos-slave as root? Running the tasks as the same user as the one running mesos-slave? Be sure the permissions are right for both users (writing and reading)? If these things fail, there might be a recently introduced bug and we will look into it. > On 03 Jun 2015, at 10:20, xiaokun <[email protected]> wrote: > > I am trying to launch a framework in mesos cluster, there is such an error > "failed to start: Failed to execute mesos-fetcher: Failed to chown work > directory" > > The root cause is that you has no permission to such path, please change your > account to a proper one.
