Yongjun Park commented on AIRFLOW-610: -------------------------------------- The exception which I attached occurred when I've made a change to the configuration to use _sql_alchemy_conn_cmd_. Originally it was _sql_alchemy_conn_ and I created databases with this option by _airflow initdb_. You can see this invalid operation following steps. # create an airflow.cfg file: {code} [core] sql_alchemy_conn_cmd = /home/airflow/db_conn.sh {code} # _/home/airflow/db_conn.sh_ contains: {code} #!/bin/bash printf mysql+mysqldb://airflow:airflow@localhost:3306/airflow {code} # you need to run _airflow initdb_ {noformat} $ airflow initdb [2016-11-01 09:54:18,041] {__init__.py:57} INFO - Using executor SequentialExecutor [2016-11-01 09:54:18,114] {driver.py:120} INFO - Generating grammar tables from /usr/lib/python2.7/lib2to3/Grammar.txt [2016-11-01 09:54:18,132] {driver.py:120} INFO - Generating grammar tables from /usr/lib/python2.7/lib2to3/PatternGrammar.txt DB: sqlite:////home/airflow/airflow.db [2016-11-01 09:54:18,382] {db.py:284} INFO - Creating tables .... {noformat} Although *sql_alchemy_conn_cmd* is exists, airflow is trying to create db using sqlite. I think default configuration precedes over __cmd_ configurations. Your test needs to override default options instead of deleting them. > Configuration parsing order doesn't work properly. > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: AIRFLOW-610 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-610 > Project: Apache Airflow > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Yongjun Park > Assignee: Yongjun Park > > I'm testing Airflow using master branch, precisely 527e3ec. > Documents says configuration is evaluated following order. > # environment variable > # configuration in airflow.cfg > # command in airflow.cfg > # default > However, it can't recognize *_cmd* options. > I added *sql_alchemy_conn_cmd* option. but it printed error below: > {code} > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/local/bin/airflow", line 6, in <module> > exec(compile(open(__file__).read(), __file__, 'exec')) > File "/usr/local/airflow/airflow/bin/airflow", line 17, in <module> > from airflow import configuration > File "/home/airflow/airflow/__init__.py", line 30, in <module> > from airflow import configuration as conf > File "/home/airflow/airflow/configuration.py", line 733, in <module> > conf.read(AIRFLOW_CONFIG) > File "/home/airflow/airflow/configuration.py", line 585, in read > self._validate() > File "/home/airflow/airflow/configuration.py", line 497, in _validate > self.get('core', 'executor'))) > {code} > I think it is affected by DEFAULT configuration.
