Hive is throwing permission error while creating table/database


I am getting permission error in hive.

I am using IBM cloud - my.imdemocloud.com

hive> create table a(key INT); FAILED: Error in metadata: MetaException(message:Got exception: org.apache.hadoop.security.AccessControlException org.apache.hadoop.security.AccessControlException: Permission denied: user=nehpraka, access=WRITE, inode="warehouse":biadmin:biadmin:rwxrwxr-x) FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask

Where as I have given all the roles to m user.

hive> SHOW GRANT USER nehpraka on DATABASE default; OK

database default principalName nehpraka principalType USER privilege Create grantTime Wed Apr 16 14:17:51 EDT 2014 grantor nehpraka Time taken: 0.051 seconds

Please help me out in this.

Thanks & Ragards


Solution

  • I got the solution.

    I was using IBM Big Insight cloud, on this we can create a database in this manner.

    create database DataBaseName location 'hdfs://master-1-internal.imdemocloud.com:9000/user/<user_name>';
    

    Thanks all for helping me.
