Sudhakar Thota commented on SPARK-9600:
---------------------------------------

Cheng Lian, 
Your statements above have given enough clarity over the issue. I could 
reproduce the issue, after trying it several times. 

The assumption of it writing to the default directory(/user/hive/warehouse) is 
not correct. 
It takes the directory we give first after unzipping the file and do the build, 
for creating table  and sticks with it for writing data. 
Any change for hive.metastore.warehouse.dir after this is not used for data 
except for creating a directory with tablename (with cean compile or without 
clean compile). 

I am looking into it.

Thanks
Sudhakar Thota

> Get a clean Spark 1.4.1 build:
> {noformat}
> $ git checkout v1.4.1
> $ ./build/sbt -Phive -Phive-thriftserver -Phadoop-1 -Dhadoop.version=1.2.1 
> clean assembly/assembly
> {noformat}
> Stop any running local Hadoop instance and unset all Hadoop environment 
> variables, so that we force Spark run with local file system only:
> {noformat}
> $ unset HADOOP_CONF_DIR
> $ unset HADOOP_PREFIX
> $ unset HADOOP_LIBEXEC_DIR
> $ unset HADOOP_CLASSPATH
> {noformat}
> In this way we also ensure that the default Hive warehouse location points to 
> local file system {{file:///user/hive/warehouse}}.  Now we create warehouse 
> directories for testing:
> {noformat}
> $ sudo rm -rf /user  # !! WARNING: IT'S /user RATHER THAN /usr !!
> $ sudo mkdir -p /user/hive/{warehouse,warehouse_hive13}
> $ sudo chown -R lian:staff /user
> $ tree /user
> /user
> └── hive
>     ├── warehouse
>     └── warehouse_hive13
> {noformat}
> Create a minimal {{hive-site.xml}}, only override the warehouse location, put 
> it under {{$SPARK_HOME/conf}}:
> {noformat}
> <?xml version="1.0"?>
> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
> <configuration>
>   <property>
>     <name>hive.metastore.warehouse.dir</name>
>     <value>file:///user/hive/warehouse_hive13</value>
>   </property>
> </configuration>
> {noformat}
> Now run our test snippets with {{pyspark}}:
> {noformat}
> $ ./bin/pyspark
> In [1]: sqlContext.range(10).coalesce(1).write.saveAsTable("ds")
> {noformat}
> Check warehouse directories:
> {noformat}
> $ tree /user
> /user
> └── hive
>     ├── warehouse
>     │   └── ds
>     │       ├── _SUCCESS
>     │       ├── _common_metadata
>     │       ├── _metadata
>     │       └── part-r-00000-46e4b32a-5c4d-4dba-b8d6-8d30ae910dc9.gz.parquet
>     └── warehouse_hive13
>         └── ds
> {noformat}
> Here you may notice the weird part: we have {{ds}} under both {{warehouse}} 
> and {{warehouse_hive13}}, but data are only written into the former.
> Now let's try HiveQl:
> {noformat}
> In [2]: sqlContext.range(10).coalesce(1).registerTempTable("t")
> In [3]: sqlContext.sql("CREATE TABLE ds_ctas AS SELECT * FROM t")
> {noformat}
> Check the directories again:
> {noformat}
> $ tree /user
> /user
> └── hive
>     ├── warehouse
>     │   └── ds
>     │       ├── _SUCCESS
>     │       ├── _common_metadata
>     │       ├── _metadata
>     │       └── part-r-00000-46e4b32a-5c4d-4dba-b8d6-8d30ae910dc9.gz.parquet
>     └── warehouse_hive13
>         ├── ds
>         └── ds_ctas
>             ├── _SUCCESS
>             └── part-00000
> {noformat}
> So HiveQl works fine.  (Hive never writes Parquet summary files, so 
> {{_common_metadata}} and {{_metadata}} are missing in {{ds_ctas}}).
