Peter Slawski commented on HIVE-9148: ------------------------------------- No, the description is correct as *hive.hwi.war.file* is assumed to be relative to *$HIVE_HOME* in HWIServer.java. *$HWI_WAR_FILE* is being set wrongly in [hwi.sh|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/b8250ac2f30539f6b23ce80a20a9e338d3d31458/bin/ext/hwi.sh#L29]. So if you didn't overwrote *hive.hwi.war.file* in hive-site.xml, the path to the HWI war file would be wrong. >From >[hwi/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/hwi/HWIServer.java:77|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/release-0.14.0/hwi/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/hwi/HWIServer.java#L77] {code:java} String hwiWAR = conf.getVar(HiveConf.ConfVars.HIVEHWIWARFILE); String hivehome = System.getenv().get("HIVE_HOME"); File hwiWARFile = new File(hivehome, hwiWAR); {code} > Fix default value for HWI_WAR_FILE > ---------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-9148 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9148 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Web UI > Affects Versions: 0.14.0, 0.13.1 > Reporter: Peter Slawski > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.15.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-9148.1.patch > > > The path to the hwi war file should be relative to hive home.
