Hi,

This error is due to the fact that current user "root" does not have permission to write on the HDFS.

The directory of HDFS is owned by the user "hdfs" with the 755 permission. You will be able to upload file if you chage user to hdfs with following command:

su hdfs

After running this on console you run command to upload file and it will be uploaded correctly.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

You can also disable security if you are in development environment with adding following property:

<property>
<name>dfs.permissions</name>
<value>false</value>
</property>

In the hdfs-site.xml file.

But this is not recommended in production environment.

Thanks
