[#2 · Accepted solution]

From hdfs user:

hadoop fs -chown root:root /user/root

and then please run the hive shell again from root user.

[#3]

chown: `/usr/root': No such file or directory

[#4]

Direcotry name should be "/user/root" not "/usr/root"

[#5]

chown: `/user/root': No such file or directory

the same problem

[#6]

can you please try to run these two hadoop commands from hdfs user?.

hadoop fs -mkdir /user/root

hadoop fs -chown /user/root

[#7]

hdfs@Manager ~]$ hadoop fs -mkdir /user/root [hdfs@Manager ~]$ hadoop fs -chown /user/root -chown: Not enough arguments: expected 2 but got 1 Usage: hadoop fs [generic options] -chown [-R] [OWNER][:[GROUP]] PATH...

[#8]

sorry my bad.

hadoop fs -chown root:root /user/root

[#9]
