title: The root scratch dir: /tmp/hive on HDFS should be writable. Current permissions are: rw-rw-rw- (on Windows)
body: <p>I am running Spark on Windows 7. When I use Hive, I see the following error</p>
  
  <pre><code>The root scratch dir: /tmp/hive on HDFS should be writable. Current permissions are: rw-rw-rw- 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The permissions are set as the following </p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\tmp&gt;ls -la
  total 20
  drwxr-xr-x    1 ADMIN Administ        0 Dec 10 13:06 .
  drwxr-xr-x    1 ADMIN Administ    28672 Dec 10 09:53 ..
  drwxr-xr-x    2 ADMIN Administ        0 Dec 10 12:22 hive
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have set "full control" to all users from Windows->properties->security->Advanced.</p>
  
  <p>But I still see the same error. Any help please?
  I have checked a bunch of links, some say this is a bug on Spark 1.5. Is this true?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks
