Chris Drome commented on HIVE-4232: ----------------------------------- [~prasadm][~cwsteinbach]: I think Prasad's point is fair. It explains why the defaults were set the way they were and should probably be documented somewhere in the code. We have a follow-up patch which adds functionality to set the QOP of the transport, so that data encryption can be enabled on the client-server transport. This will require some changes to the JDBC connection string and I wanted to get buy-in to modify the existing format of the connection string before posting that patch. I still feel the naming conventions are a little misleading and the JDBC connection string tries to infer the state. However, if everyone agrees that NOSASL should generally not be used, then I won't push that issue. Although it doesn't help in the case a client library adds auth=nosasl, resulting in the connection hanging. > JDBC2 HiveConnection has odd defaults > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4232 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4232 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HiveServer2, JDBC > Affects Versions: 0.11.0 > Reporter: Chris Drome > Assignee: Chris Drome > Fix For: 0.11.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-4232-1.patch, HIVE-4232.patch > > > HiveConnection defaults to using a plain SASL transport if auth is not set. > To get a raw transport auth must be set to noSasl; furthermore noSasl is case > sensitive.
