Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-3053:
---------------------------------------
Here is only the place to get support for apache release versions of hive. IF
you are running a patched hive it is better to contact the vendor (Cloudera)
because they likely have errata on the issue. If you are getting an error like
hive-log4j.properties not found you likely have a classpath issue and your
install is not finding your conf directory.
> Hive stopped working when new updates were installed

> Key: HIVE-3053
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3053
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Configuration
> Affects Versions: 0.7.1
> Environment: Hadoop on Ubuntu 10 LTS; Hive 0.7.1
> Reporter: Vikas Deshpande
> Labels: hadoop, patch
>
> After a recent update (using only cloudera's patches/releases), the hive
> command and hive prompt stopped working. It throws these (java) errors
> instead:
> log4j:ERROR Could not find value for key log4j.appender.NullAppender
> log4j:ERROR Could not instantiate appender named "NullAppender".
> hive-log4j.properties not found
> Hive history file=/location/job_id.txt
> 12/05/25 09:56:56 INFO exec.HiveHistory: Hive history
> file=/location/job_id.txt
> I am not sure how to proceed with root cause. Could somebody please check on
> this as soon as possible?
