> HIVE-9664 makes hive depend on the existence of ivysettings.xml, and if it is 
> not present, it makes hive NPE when instantiating a CLISessionState.
> {noformat}
> java.lang.NullPointerException
> at 
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.session.DependencyResolver.<init>(DependencyResolver.java:61)
> at 
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.session.SessionState.<init>(SessionState.java:343)
> at 
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.session.SessionState.<init>(SessionState.java:334)
> at org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliSessionState.<init>(CliSessionState.java:60)
> {noformat}
> This happens because of the following bit:
> {noformat}
>     // If HIVE_HOME is not defined or file is not found in HIVE_HOME/conf 
> then load default ivysettings.xml from class loader
>     if (ivysettingsPath == null || !(new File(ivysettingsPath).exists())) {
>       ivysettingsPath = 
> ClassLoader.getSystemResource("ivysettings.xml").getFile();
>       _console.printInfo("ivysettings.xml file not found in HIVE_HOME or 
> HIVE_CONF_DIR," + ivysettingsPath + " will be used");
>     }
> {noformat}
> This makes it so that an attempt to instantiate CliSessionState without an 
> ivysettings.xml file will cause hive to fail with an NPE. Hive should not 
> have a hard dependency on a ivysettings,xml being present, and this feature 
> should gracefully fail in that case instead.
