Failed to format NameNode. Program: hdfs/hdfs.sh

Hi ,

I am new to cloudera community.

on : Ubuntu : 12.04

got multiple file permission errors when i tried to enable HDFS service from the clouder manager. I believe it would be same for other services.

+ exec /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH-5.3.0-1.cdh5.3.0.p0.30/lib/hadoop-hdfs/bin/hdfs --config /run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/21-hdfs-NAMENODE-format namenode -format -clusterId cluster4 -nonInteractive
log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/log/hadoop-hdfs/hdfs-audit.log (No such file or directory)

full log : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9WOaTjiz-szMkhFLWhGamlZdmc/view?usp=sharing

using single user mode : cloudera-scm

Is there something which I missed to configure. Please suggest.

Thanks

Single user mode requires that you change the default configuration for all log and data directories to ones that are writable by the cloudera-scm user. The root cause for the failure you're seeing is that /dfs/nn cannot be created by the cloudera-scm user.

Please refer to the single user documentation for all the necessary steps to configure your cluster: http://www.cloudera.com/content/cloudera/en/documentation/core/latest/topics/install_singleuser_reqts.html
