Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HIVE-7901: ---------------------------------------- This issue is a clone of a prior jira : HIVE-6633, which modified it for org.apache.hcatalog.* classes, which got removed as deprecated classes were pruned out. So, we effectively need to add that change back in, to org.apache.hive.hcatalog.* classes. > CLONE - pig -useHCatalog with embedded metastore fails to pass command line > args to metastore (org.apache.hive.hcatalog version) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7901 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7901 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HCatalog > Affects Versions: 0.14.0 > Reporter: Sushanth Sowmyan > Assignee: Eric Hanson > > This fails because the embedded metastore can't connect to the database > because the command line -D arguments passed to pig are not getting passed to > the metastore when the embedded metastore is created. Using > hive.metastore.uris set to the empty string causes creation of an embedded > metastore. > pig -useHCatalog "-Dhive.metastore.uris=" > "-Djavax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword=AzureSQLDBXYZ" > The goal is to allow a pig job submitted via WebHCat to specify a metastore > to use via job arguments. That is not working because it is not possible to > pass Djavax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword and other necessary arguments to > the embedded metastore. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
