@Koffi

This is a permission issue which can be resolved by changing the access using the hdfs user who happens to be the HDFS superuser

The error Permission denied: user=t_hdhusr, access=READ_EXECUTE, inode="/user/T_HDHUSR":T_HDHUSR:hdfs:drwx------

As the root user

# su- hdfs
$ hdfs dfs -chown -R  t_hdhusr:hdfs /user/T_HDHUSR

It seems t_hdhuser and T_HDHUSR is not interpreted as the same

Now running the below should succeed

$ hdfs dfs -ls /user/T_HDHUSR

HTH
