Hi I posted this on the user list yesterday, I am posting it here now because on further investigation I am pretty sure this is a bug:
On upgrade from 1.5.0 to 1.6.0 I have a problem with the hivethriftserver2, I have this code: val hiveContext = new HiveContext(SparkContext.getOrCreate(conf)); val thing = hiveContext.read.parquet("hdfs://dkclusterm1.imp.net:8020/user/jegreen1/ex208") thing.registerTempTable("thing") HiveThriftServer2.startWithContext(hiveContext) When I start things up on the cluster my hive-site.xml is found – I can see that the metastore connects: INFO metastore - Trying to connect to metastore with URI thrift://dkclusterm2.imp.net:9083 INFO metastore - Connected to metastore. But then later on the thrift server seems not to connect to the remote hive metastore but to start a derby instance instead: INFO AbstractService - Service:CLIService is started. INFO ObjectStore - ObjectStore, initialize called INFO Query - Reading in results for query "org.datanucleus.store.rdbms.query.SQLQuery@0" since the connection used is closing INFO MetaStoreDirectSql - Using direct SQL, underlying DB is DERBY INFO ObjectStore - Initialized ObjectStore INFO HiveMetaStore - 0: get_databases: default INFO audit - ugi=jegreen1 ip=unknown-ip-addr cmd=get_databases: default INFO HiveMetaStore - 0: Shutting down the object store... INFO audit - ugi=jegreen1 ip=unknown-ip-addr cmd=Shutting down the object store... INFO HiveMetaStore - 0: Metastore shutdown complete. INFO audit - ugi=jegreen1 ip=unknown-ip-addr cmd=Metastore shutdown complete. INFO AbstractService - Service:ThriftBinaryCLIService is started. INFO AbstractService - Service:HiveServer2 is started. On 1.5.0 the same bit of the log reads: INFO AbstractService - Service:CLIService is started. INFO metastore - Trying to connect to metastore with URI thrift://dkclusterm2.imp.net:9083 ******* ie 1.5.0 connects to remote hive INFO metastore - Connected to metastore. INFO AbstractService - Service:ThriftBinaryCLIService is started. INFO AbstractService - Service:HiveServer2 is started. INFO ThriftCLIService - Starting ThriftBinaryCLIService on port 10000 with 5...500 worker threads So if I connect to this with JDBC I can see all the tables on the hive server – but not anything temporary – I guess they are going to derby. I see someone on the databricks website is also having this problem. Thanks James Please consider the environment before printing this email. This message should be regarded as confidential.
