-----------------------------
Summary: Provide an easier way to capture DEBUG logging
Key: HIVE-5208
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5208
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: CLI
Affects Versions: 0.11.0
Reporter: Harsh J
Priority: Minor
Capturing debug logging for troubleshooting is painful in Hive today:
1. It doesn't log anywhere by default.
2. We need to add a long "-hiveconf hive.root.logger=DEBUG,console" to the Hive
CLI just to enable the debug flag, or set an equivalent env-var appropriately.
I suggest we make this simpler via either one of the below:
1. Provide a wrapped binary, "hive-debug", so folks can simply re-run
the "hive-debug" command and re-run their query and capture an output. This
could also write to a pre-designated $PWD file.
2. Provide a simpler switch, such as "-verbose" that automatically
toggles the flag instead, much like what Beeline does today already.
