Ganesha Shreedhara updated HIVE-18859: -------------------------------------- Attachment: (was: HIVE-18859.2.patch) > Incorrect handling of thrift metastore exceptions > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-18859 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18859 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.2.0, 2.1.1 > Reporter: Ganesha Shreedhara > Assignee: Ganesha Shreedhara > Priority: Major > Attachments: HIVE-18859.patch > > > Currently any run time exception thrown in thrift metastore during the > following operations is not getting sent to hive execution engine. > * grant/revoke role > * grant/revoke privileges > * create role > This is because ThriftHiveMetastore just handles MetaException and throws > TException during the processing of these requests. So, the command just > fails at thrift metastore end when there is run time exception (Exception can > be seen in metastore log) but the hive execution engine will keep on waiting > for the response from thrift metatstore. > > Steps to reproduce this problem : > Launch thrift metastore > Launch hive cli by passing --hiveconf > hive.metastore.uris=thrift://127.0.0.1:10000 (pass the thrift metatstore host > and port) > Execute the following commands: > # set role admin > # create role test; (succeeds) > # create role test; ( hive version 2.1.1 : command is stuck, waiting for the > response from thrift metastore; hive version 1.2.1: command fails with > exception as null) > > I have uploaded the patch which has the fix in which I am handling the > checked exceptions in MetaException and throwing unchecked exceptions using > TException which fixes the problem. Please review and suggest if there is a > better way of handling this issue. > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
