Answer

  1. Check whether the user who logs in to the Hue web UI has the permissions of the hadoop user group.

  2. Check whether the HttpFS instance has been installed for the HDFS service and is running properly. If the HttpFS instance is not installed, manually install and restart the Hue service.
