Cluster entity is giving error while submitting the falcon entry

[#1]

I have the following error while submitting the falcon entity cluster. I have stmp is in HDFS directory already.

"

[hdfs@sandbox ~]$ falcon entity -type cluster -submit -file primary-cluster.xml

ERROR: Bad Request;Unable to validate the location with path: /stmp for cluster:primary due to transient failures

"

The following is my primary-cluster.xml

<cluster xmlns='uri:falcon:cluster:0.1' name='primary-cluster' description='primary cluster' colo='toronto'> <tags>class=product,site=pacific-west</tags> <interfaces> <interface type='readonly' endpoint='hdfs://sandbox.hortonworks.com:8020' version='2.2.0'/> <interface type='write' endpoint='hdfs://sandbox.hortonworks.com:8020' version='2.2.0'/> <interface type='execute' endpoint='sandbox.hortonworks.com:8050' version='2.2.0'/> <interface type='workflow' endpoint='http://sandbox.hortonworks.com:11000/oozie/' version='4.0.0'/> <interface type='messaging' endpoint='tcp://sandbox.hortonworks.com:61616?daemon=true' version='5.1.6'/> </interfaces> <locations> <location name='staging' path='/stmp'/> <location name='temp' path='/tmp'/> <location name='working' path='/mtmp'/> </locations> <ACL owner='hdfs' group='hdfs' permission='0x755'/> </cluster>

It has been resolved after I ran this command with 'falcon' user. But, the error message "ERROR: Bad Request;Unable to validate the location with path: /stmp for cluster:primary due to transient failures" is not much informative about the root cause.

@Kumar Datla

The error message does say - "Unable to validate the location with path: /stmp" which means either the path does not exist or due to permissions issue the program / process was unable to access the directory.

In any case, looks like you have been able to move past the issue so I will close this thread.
