Filebrowser in HUE not working, uploads fail for user

The Error I see when I try to upload as any user reports:

"Failed to obtain user group information: org.apache.hadoop.security.authorize.AuthorizationException: User: hadoop is not allowed to impersonate hue"

I'm not sure what to do... I have changed the psuedo_distribution file in hue, and added proxy group hdfs and hadoop to the hadoop core-site.xml

Please help!

Thanks

Seems like it is using 'hadoop' instead of 'hue'. Which Hue distribution are you using? You should not need to modify hue.ini file by default.

How to configure Hue for HDFS:

 WebHDFS: Add to core-site.xml:

<!-- Hue WebHDFS proxy user setting -->
<property>
  <name>hadoop.proxyuser.hue.hosts</name>
  <value>*</value>
</property>
<property>
  <name>hadoop.proxyuser.hue.groups</name>
  <value>*</value>
</property>
