Hi
Hive version 0.9.0 (hive-common-0.9.0-cdh4.1.2.jar)
<property>
<name>hive.security.authorization.enabled</name>
<value>true</value>
<description>enable or disable the hive client authorization</description>
</property>
Linux User = hiveuser1 (no hive permissions)
CASE 1
hive -e "select * from outpdir_ptitle_explanation_parsed limit 10"
Authorization failed:No privilege 'Select' found for inputs { database:default,
table:outpdir_ptitle_explanation_parsed, columnName:header_servername}. Use
show grant to get more details.
CASE 2 (use the -h option)
hive -h localhost -e "select * from outpdir_ptitle_explanation_parsed limit 10"
Shows results !!!
Why does "-h" option bypass authorization
Thanks
sanjay
