Hi, I am trying to start Hive on Cloudera Manager and if anyone can help, I will be very glad. Thanks.

I am getting this error:

That's because the "/tmp" directory in your HDFS does not allow access to hive. In general "/tmp" should have 777 permissions, because most of the services use it as a temp directory to store various info. So, if there is no reason to restrict accesss, the following command will solve your problem.

hdfs dfs -chmod 777 /tmp

to add a point to @GeKas 

 

you can see the permission denied in your log trace ( future reference ) . 

 

AccessControlException: Permission denied: user=hive, access=EXECUTE, inode="/tmp":hdfs:supergroup:d-wx
