Cannot create directories in tutorial

hi All,

I'm new to Hive. I am doing this tutorial:
  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/GettingStarted

And I've got an error at this step:

  $ $HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop fs -mkdir       /user/hive/warehouse

The error is:

mkdir: `/user/hive/warehouse': No such file or directory

Do you know how to solve this issue?

Googling this error shows only 4 results all of which are in foreign
languages:
https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=%22mkdir%3A+%60%2Fuser%2Fhive%2Fwarehouse%27%3A+No+such+file+or+directory%22

Thanks,
Val

You probably do not have the parent directories.
Try

$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop fs -mkdir -p /user/hive/warehouse

(the -p is so that parent directories also get created)
