             Summary: Notebook creation fails in Zeppelin 0.9 with namespace collision with other users
                 Key: ZEPPELIN-5066
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-5066
             Project: Zeppelin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.9.0
            Reporter: Jeff Hammel


For non-public notebooks, say UserA creates a notebook e.g. "Untitled Note 1".  Then UserB tries to create a notebook.  The default prompts for "Untitled Note 1".  However, clicking enter results in the message: "Failed to create note.
IOException: Note '/Untitled Note 1' existed". 

 

What I would expect ideally is that each user gets their own notebook namespace.  Otherwise, even when not using the defaults when notebooks are not public, a user has to guess a name that they can't validate until creation fails.

 

At the very least the error message should be better and the default name should e.g. contain something in reference to the user name (e.g. "Jeff Untitled Note 1")
