Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-4820:
-------------------------------------
Should we warn the user that the HIVE_HOME is being set to {$bin}/../.. , as
hive home is not defined ?
In an installation, it would be confusing to see errors saying that lib
directory was not found under HIVE_HOME, when the hive home was not specified
by the user, or based on hive in the PATH.
> webhcat_config.sh should set default values for HIVE_HOME and HCAT_PREFIX
> that work with default build tree structure
