Shreyas Joshi created HIVE-14725: ------------------------------------ Summary: HiveServer2Hook invokes incorrect Auth mechanism when user not specified Key: HIVE-14725 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14725 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: HiveServer2 Reporter: Shreyas Joshi
h3. Summary {{HiveServer2Hook}} Seems to be ignoring the auth_mechanism when the user is not specified. I am not entirely sure if the solution should be should change impyala or Airflow. h3. Reproducing the problem With this connection string for Hive: {{AIRFLOW_CONN_GH_HIVE=hive2://@localhost:10000/}} (No user name and no password) I get the following error from {{HiveServer2hook}}: {code} from airflow.hooks import HiveServer2Hook hive_hook = HiveServer2Hook (hiveserver2_conn_id='GH_HIVE') {code} {noformat} [2016-09-08 14:30:52,420] {base_hook.py:53} INFO - Using connection to: localhost Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/Users/shreyasjoshis/python-envs/default-env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/airflow/hooks/hive_hooks.py", line 464, in get_conn database=db.schema or 'default') File "/Users/shreyasjoshis/python-envs/default-env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/impala/dbapi.py", line 147, in connect auth_mechanism=auth_mechanism) File "/Users/shreyasjoshis/python-envs/default-env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/impala/hiveserver2.py", line 658, in connect transport.open() File "/Users/shreyasjoshis/python-envs/default-env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/thrift_sasl/__init__.py", line 72, in open message=("Could not start SASL: %s" % self.sasl.getError())) thriftpy.transport.TTransportException: TTransportException(type=1, message="Could not start SASL: b'Error in sasl_client_start (-4) SASL(-4): no mechanism available: No worthy mechs found'") {noformat} h3. More detail [Here|https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow/blob/master/airflow/hooks/hive_hooks.py#L591] {{db.login}} ends up being an empty string rather than {{None}}. This seems to cause impala to try sasl. Changing {{db.login}} from an empty string to {{None}} seems to fix the issue. So, the following does not work {code} from impala.dbapi import connect connect (host='localhost', port=10000, user='', auth_mechanism='PLAIN', database= 'default') {code} The error is: {noformat} Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/Users/shreyasjoshis/python-envs/default-env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/impala/dbapi.py", line 147, in connect auth_mechanism=auth_mechanism) File "/Users/shreyasjoshis/python-envs/default-env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/impala/hiveserver2.py", line 658, in connect transport.open() File "/Users/shreyasjoshis/python-envs/default-env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/thrift_sasl/__init__.py", line 72, in open message=("Could not start SASL: %s" % self.sasl.getError())) thriftpy.transport.TTransportException: TTransportException(type=1, message="Could not start SASL: b'Error in sasl_client_start (-4) SASL(-4): no mechanism available: No worthy mechs found'") {noformat} But the following does: {code} from impala.dbapi import connect connect (host='localhost', port=10000, user=None, auth_mechanism='PLAIN', database= 'default') {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
