Automatically execute script that requires password when I login with my second user

Question

So I am changing all of the question so you can understand my purpose:

I have this script.sh:

$HADOOP_HOME/sbin/start-dfs.sh
$HADOOP_HOME/sbin/start-yarn.sh
cd /home/hadoop/apache-hive-3.1.1-bin/ 
hiveserver2 & 
sudo /opt/hue/build/env/bin/hue runserver &

I want it to be run automatically when ubuntu boots and I login to second user hadoop.

PROBLEM:

This script should be executed by user hadoop. This hadoop user has a password. Ubuntu boots on another user by default.

How should I do please? Newbie alert!

but you don't want hadoop to become a user with sudo priveleges? — tatsu, Jun 12 '19 at 15:48
He already is. Actually my main purpose is to get Hadoop to execute a script when I start my lap. But to give him control I need to do su - hadoop (because lap starts with another user by default) which requires a manually given password. So the idea is to replace the default user by hadoop — Haha, Jun 12 '19 at 15:51

@Fabby, almost. Only I am trying to launch the script from a secondary user not the default oe — Haha, Jun 14 '19 at 07:51
@AbderrahmenM Close vote retracted Please [edit] your question if the herd would still close it and make it clear *in the title* that you need another user then the default one. ;-) 0:-) — Fabby, Jun 15 '19 at 15:41

Read man sudoers and you can do sudo -u hadoop the script, and allow user hadoop to execute those specific commands NOPASSWWD.
