I have looked at the log and found the following:

Is there anything wrong with the configuration I am using?

#=============================================

1. To be put in APACHE_FLUME_HOME/conf/agent.conf
   #
2. General configuration template explaining how to setup a sink of each of
   the available types (HDFS, CKAN, MySQL).

#=============================================

1. The next tree fields set the sources, sinks and channels used by Cygnus.
   You could use different names than the
2. ones suggested below, but in that case make sure you keep coherence in
   properties names along the configuration file.
3. Regarding sinks, you can use multiple types at the same time; the only
   requirement is to provide a channel for each
4. one of them (this example shows how to configure 3 sink types at the same
   time). Even, you can define more than one
5. sink of the same type and sharing the channel in order to improve the
   performance (this is like having
6. multi-threading).
   cygnusagent.sources = http-source
   cygnusagent.sinks = hdfs-sink
   cygnusagent.channels = hdfs-channel

#=============================================

1. source configuration
2. channel name where to write the notification events
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.channels = hdfs-channel
3. source class, must not be changed
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.type =
   org.apache.flume.source.http.HTTPSource
4. listening port the Flume source will use for receiving incoming
   notifications
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.port = 5050
5. Flume handler that will parse the notifications, must not be changed
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler =
   com.telefonica.iot.cygnus.handlers.OrionRestHandler
6. URL target
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler.notification_target = /notify
7. Default service (service semantic depends on the persistence sink)
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler.default_service = def_serv
8. Default service path (service path semantic depends on the persistence
   sink)
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler.default_service_path = def_servpath
9. Number of channel re-injection retries before a Flume event is definitely
   discarded (-1 means infinite retries)
   cygnusagent.sources.http-source.handler.events_ttl = 10
10. Source interceptors, do not change
    cygnusagent.sources.http-source.interceptors = ts gi
11. TimestampInterceptor, do not change
    cygnusagent.sources.http-source.interceptors.ts.type = timestamp
12. GroupinInterceptor, do not change
    cygnusagent.sources.http-source.interceptors.gi.type =
    com.telefonica.iot.cygnus.interceptors.GroupingInterceptor$Builder
13. Grouping rules for the GroupingInterceptor, put the right absolute path
    to the file if necessary
14. See the doc/design/interceptors document for more details
    cygnusagent.sources.http-source.interceptors.gi.grouping_rules_conf_file =
    /usr/cygnus/conf/grouping_rules.conf

1. ============================================
2. OrionHDFSSink configuration
3. channel name from where to read notification events
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.channel = hdfs-channel
4. sink class, must not be changed
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.type =
   com.telefonica.iot.cygnus.sinks.OrionHDFSSink
   #ֲ true if the grouping feature is enabled for this sink, false otherwise
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.enable_grouping = false
5. rest if the interaction with HDFS will be WebHDFS/HttpFS-based, binary if
   based on the Hadoop API
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.backend_impl = rest
6. Comma-separated list of FQDN/IP address regarding the HDFS Namenode
   endpoints
7. If you are using Kerberos authentication, then the usage of FQDNs instead
   of IP addresses is mandatory
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hdfs_host = cosmos.lab.fiware.org
8. port of the HDFS service listening for persistence operations; 14000 for
   httpfs, 50070 for webhdfs
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hdfs_port = 14000
9. username allowed to write in HDFS
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hdfs_username = COSMOS_USER
   #ֲ password for the above username; this is only required for Hive
   authentication
   cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hdfs_password = COSMOS_PASSWORD
10. OAuth2 token for HDFS authentication
    #cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.oauth2_token = TOKEN
11. how the attributes are stored, available formats are json-row,
    json-column, csv-row and csv-column
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.file_format = json-column
    #ֲ number of notifications to be included within a processing batch
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.batch_size = 100
12. timeout for batch accumulation
    cygunsagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.batch_timeout = 30
13. Hive enabling
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hive = true
14. Hive server version, 1 or 2 (ignored if hive is false)
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hive.server_version = 2
15. Hive FQDN/IP address of the Hive server (ignored if hive is false)
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hive.host = cosmos.lab.fiware.org
16. Hive port for Hive external table provisioning (ignored if hive is false)
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hive.port = 10000
17. Kerberos-based authentication enabling
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.krb5_auth = false
18. Kerberos username (ignored if krb5_auth is false)
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.krb5_auth.krb5_user = krb5_username
19. Kerberos password (ignored if krb5_auth is false)
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.krb5_auth.krb5_password = xxxxxxxxxxxxx
20. Kerberos login file (ignored if krb5_auth is false)
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.krb5_auth.krb5_login_conf_file =
    /usr/cygnus/conf/krb5_login.conf
21. Kerberos configuration file (ignored if krb5_auth is false)
    cygnusagent.sinks.hdfs-sink.krb5_auth.krb5_conf_file =
    /usr/cygnus/conf/krb5.conf

#=============================================

1. hdfs-channel configuration
2. channel type (must not be changed)
   cygnusagent.channels.hdfs-channel.type = memory
3. capacity of the channel
   cygnusagent.channels.hdfs-channel.capacity = 1000
4. amount of bytes that can be sent per transaction
   cygnusagent.channels.hdfs-channel.transactionCapacity = 100

1. Who to run cygnus as. Note that you may need to use root if you want
2. to run cygnus in a privileged port (<1024)
   CYGNUS_USER=cygnus

1. Where is the config folder
   CONFIG_FOLDER=/usr/cygnus/conf

1. Which is the config file
   CONFIG_FILE=/usr/cygnus/conf/agent_1.conf

1. Name of the agent. The name of the agent is not trivial, since it is the
   base for the Flume parameters
2. naming conventions, e.g. it appears in .sources.http-source.channels=...
   AGENT_NAME=cygnusagent

1. Name of the logfile located at /var/log/cygnus. It is important to put
   the extension '.log' in order to the log rotation works properly
   LOGFILE_NAME=cygnus.log

1. Administration port. Must be unique per instance
   ADMIN_PORT=8081

1. Polling interval (seconds) for the configuration reloading
   POLLING_INTERVAL=30

Thanks you!
