-------------------------------------

             Summary: Improve error detection and reporting in 
MetastoreCacheInitializer.java
                 Key: SENTRY-1564
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-1564
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Vadim Spector


Turns out malformed HMS database is pretty common phenomenon and 
MetastoreCacheInitializer.java is not really helpful in figuring out what's 
wrong. The result is failure in initializing MetastorePlugin.

Adding simple stuff, like testing for returned null objects as opposed to 
waiting till dereferencing them produces NullPointerException would go a long 
way in making life easier.
