@Matt Burgess Hi Matt, I am using nifi-1.4.0 with HDP 2.6. I was facing the same issue in PutHiveStreaming processor. I replaced it with the nar you provided. It is working fine when I'm writing to a non partitioned table. But when I tried to write it to a partitioned hive table, it throws the following error : PutHiveStreaming[id=9b7b6af6-015f-1000-8772-6b70eb0a4841] failed to process due to java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: The root scratch dir: /tmp/hive on HDFS should be writable. Current permissions are: rwx------; rolling back session: {} java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: The root scratch dir: /tmp/hive on HDFS should be writable. Current permissions are: rwx------ I have provided all the necessary permissions to /tmp/hive folder, still I'm facing the same issue. Please let me know if I'm missing something. Thanks, Mohit Jain , @Matt Burgess I am using nifi 1.4.0 with HDP 2.6. I was facing the same error. I replaced the hive nar bundle with the one you provided. It is now working fine for the unpartitioned table.
