@dhieru singh can you please check if user holger_gov exists in users-credentials.properties stored in directory /usr/hdp/current/atlas-server/conf/

@Nixon Rodrigues Thanks for the response, appreciate your help

No there is no holger_gov in the users-credentails.properties file.

Attached is the image

@Nixon Rodrigues I was able to add the user holger_gov in the users-credentials.properties file.

For users having the same issue, they need to edit the users-credentials.properties file using vi or any editor

holger_gov=<ROLE YOU want to give>::<sha256sum of the password>

in order to generate the sha256sum use the below command in *nix terminal

echo -n "yourpassword" | sha256sum

it will give you some output like below

4d20573d20756b4b2cd80e41def04b52907710000b038f0f901d4b568e254fc6 -

copy the sum till 6 leave out the space and - (dash) and paste it in the users-credentials.properties files.

Restart you ATLAS server from ambari, and it will work

Thanks again to @Nixon Rodrigues

Another question? Do I also need to cretae and add policy-store.txt , as of now I do not have any such file in the directory /usr/hdp/current/atlas-server/conf/.

Thanks

Do not add policy-store.txt for HDP3, Please check if atlas-simple-authz-policy.json present, if not add atlas-simple-authz-policy.json and edit the JSON file to add the role for your user holger_gov or its group.

@Nixon Rodrigues Thanks a lot for the help yes it did help I am using HDP3.1 sandbox.

I went ahead and added the user holger_gov in the userRoles section as shown below

however I am not able to see the metadata of hive tables and lineage in Atlas UI. The Atlas UI looks like below

In addition when I searched in this community, they advised to run hive-import.sh, when I did that, I receive the following error using "holger_gov" as user

using "admin" as user

Is this related to ranger? when I to hdfs dfs -ls /user I do not see holger_gov user, but then admin is there so admin should work.

Do I need to change the below property from ambari ? from ranger to simple

atlas.authorizer.impl = simple? at present it is ranger

I am confused now apologies for long winded question

Thanks for your help!

@Nixon Rodrigues

After adding the user in atlas-simple-authz-policy.json and chnaging the property atlas.authorizer.impl = simple worked from me it is working now. Thanks a lot for your help.

However please do explain how it worked because I am confused after searching a lot in the community.

Thanks

@dhieru singh, If you enable atlas .authorizer.impl = ranger, then you need to add policies in ranger admin for atlas service.

You can close the thread if above answer have resolved the issue.

Thanks

@Nixon Rodrigues I have tried adding ranger policies for atlas service however there is something I am doing wrong, probably I will ask as a different question. Thanks a lot and appreciate your help.
