Vihang Karajgaonkar commented on HIVE-16057:
--------------------------------------------
Isn't that the expected behavior? If
{{hadoop.security.credential.provider.path}} is provided the password has to be
provided through either the environment variable or from
{{HADOOP_CREDSTORE_PASSWORD}} from the command line. If the user is using
credential provider API to secure passwords why will they want to provide the
password in clear text on commandline?
> SchemaTool ignores --passWord argument if
> hadoop.security.credential.provider.path is configured

> It the {{hadoop.security.credential.provider.path}} is defined in command
> line, but the correct {{HADOOP_CREDSTORE_PASSWORD}} is not provided the
> SchemaTool fails, even if the correct metastore password is provided with
> {{--passWord}}
> Could be reproduced if the hive-site.xml contains the following:
> {code}
> <property>
> <name>hadoop.security.credential.provider.path</name>
>
> <value>localjceks://file//Users/petervary/tmp/conf/creds.localjceks</value>
> </property>
> {code}
> {code}
> $ ../schemaTool --dbType=mysql --info --passWord=pwd
> Metastore connection URL:
> jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/hive?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8
> Metastore Connection Driver : com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
> Metastore connection User: hive
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.HiveMetaException: Failed to get schema
> version.
> *** schemaTool failed ***
> {code}
> The {{--passWord}} argument should override the errors from the credential
> provider
