Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HADOOP-9929:
----------------------------------------------

ok, that was a bad example since it would succeed.  (Wish I could edit comments!)  The point is that something like /*/foo would fail since it would try to recurse into the /secret subdirectory.

> Using "hadoop fs -ls" to list a path where the permissions of a parent directory are insufficient ends up reporting "no such file or directory" on the full path rather than reporting the permission issue.  For example:
> {noformat}
> $ hadoop fs -ls /user/abc/tests/data
> ls: `/user/abc/tests/data': No such file or directory
> $ hadoop fs -ls /user/abc
> ls: Permission denied: user=somebody, access=READ_EXECUTE, inode="/user/abc":abc:hdfs:drwx------
> {noformat}
