Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HIVE-5659: ---------------------------------------- Also, there is an issue with the attached patch, I'm afraid what will happen with that merge is this: There'll be a newConf created, with the new properties from hbase-default.xml , etc , overriding the properties in jobConf. Then, with that merge direction, everything in newConf will override existing values in jobConf. Unless I'm reading HBaseConfiguration.merge incorrectly, I believe the goal here might have been to go the other way, but that'll give us a usable newConf, whereas we wanted to make modifications to jobConf. Since this is a duplicate of HIVE-6115, and that patch is closer to the required solution, I think, I'm going to shift over to that bug. > HBaseStorageHandler overwrites Hive-set HBase properties with hbase-defaults > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-5659 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5659 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HBase Handler > Affects Versions: 0.12.0 > Reporter: Craig Condit > Attachments: HIVE-5659.patch > > > As part of the changes to HIVE-5260, it appears that HBase properties set in > hive-conf.xml are being clobbered by defaults from hbase-default.xml. > Specifically, we noticed it when attempting to set hbase.zookeeper.quorum. > That value defaults to 'localhost' and results in queries of HBase tables > hanging attempting to acquire a lock from a Zookeeper instance which isn't > running. > Any properties set in hive-site.xml will be overwritten by those in > hbase-default.xml, which doesn't seem good. > The call to HBaseConfiguration.addHbaseResources(jobConf) seems to be the > culprit, around line 337. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
