Customer did a non-root install with the 10.5.4 ES / 1.5.3 Columnstore. After install they reported mysqld crashing:

call columnstore_info.table_usage('test_cs', NULL);

test_cs is the name of our columnstore database on this server.

ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query

After further investigation, they reported they fixed the problem by (from customer)

I found the issue was that /tmp/columnstore_tmp_files was getting permission denied, I opened it and now I can issue those stored procedures? I had to do a chmod 777 /tmp/columnstore_tmp_file

So I don't know if this is a code issue where chmod should have been done as part of the post-install work. Or it needs to be documented that the customer needs to do this.
