Harish, can you check with version of Hadoop/HDFS is packaged in CDH 5.4? Ranger 0.5 is compatible in HDFS 2.7.x and for versions before that you need to use Ranger 0.4.
The install scripts is based on open source Hadoop version and assumes the paths for configuration and libraries. I am not sure how CDH lays down it¹s bits. If you want, we can help you in the installation.
