Hi,
  I build custom UDFS for hive and they seem to work fine when i explicitly
register the jars using the "add jar <jarname>" command or put in in the
environment variable "HIVE_AUX_JARS_PATH". But if i add it as a
configuration variable in the hive-site.xml file and try to register the
function using "create temporary function <functionname> as 'funciton' ", it
cannot find the jar. Any idea whats going on here?

Here is the snippet from hive-site.xml:

~/Documents/workspace/Hive_0_7_1/build/dist/conf$grep aux hive-site.xml
<property><name>hive.aux.jars.path</name><value>/Users/amsharma/dev/Perforce/development/depot/dataeng/hive/dist</value></property>
