Ok, setting the hadoopConf before initialize seems to have gotten past that hump. I’m debugging an issue with my tests where it appears that I’m not cleaning up glue in between test runs but I am cleaning up the filesystem so the metadata files no longer exist and it fails. But why is it using metadata files at all with the Glue catalog? The “metadata_location” on the Glue table paramaters is set to a file path. Is that how this is supposed to work? Does it just remove the need for the version-hint.text file but not the metadata.json files?

I think you need to first call setConf and then initialize, mimicking the logic in https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/6bcca16c48cd92dc98640130a28f73431e99e336/core/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/CatalogUtil.java#L189-L191which<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fapache%2Ficeberg%2Fblob%2F6bcca16c48cd92dc98640130a28f73431e99e336%2Fcore%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fapache%2Ficeberg%2FCatalogUtil.java%23L189-L191which&data=04%7C01%7Cgnhill%40paypal.com%7Cecf5a300b87540d1bc8f08d94232b77e%7Cfb00791460204374977e21bac5f3f4c8%7C0%7C0%7C637613607864000826%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=bh5giMrRgrY%2F%2FfSt3wI18rhAaGWRsfKsznaUELMPveM%3D&reserved=0> is used by all engines to initialize catalogs. You might be able to directly leverage the CatalogUtil.buildIcebergCatalog instead of writing your customized logic. With that being said, I remember we had this conversation in another thread and did not continue with it, EMRFS consistent view is now unnecessary as S3 is now strongly consistent. I am not sure if there is any additional benefit you would like to gain by continuing to use EMRFS. -Jack Ye On Thu, Jul 8, 2021 at 8:11 AM Greg Hill <gnh...@paypal.com.invalid> wrote: Thanks! Seems I wasn’t too far off then. It’s my understanding that because we’re using EMRFS consistent view, we should not use S3FileIO or the emrfs metadata will get out of sync, but it doesn’t seem like this catalog works with HadoopFileIO so far in my basic testing. I get a NullPointerException because the Hadoop configuration isn’t passed along at some point. I noticed that I needed to call `setConf()` to get the Hadoop configs into the catalog object. Map<String, String> props = ImmutableMap.of( "type", "iceberg", "warehouse", config.getOutputDir(), "lock-impl", "org.apache.iceberg.aws.glue.DynamoLockManager", "lock.table", config.getDynamoIcebergLocksTable(), "io-impl", "org.apache.iceberg.hadoop.HadoopFileIO" ); this.icebergCatalog.initialize("iceberg", props); this.icebergCatalog.setConf(spark.sparkContext().hadoopConfiguration()); Then when I call createTable later: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.get(FileSystem.java:481) at org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path.getFileSystem(Path.java:365) at org.apache.iceberg.hadoop.Util.getFs(Util.java:48) at org.apache.iceberg.hadoop.HadoopOutputFile.fromPath(HadoopOutputFile.java:53) at org.apache.iceberg.hadoop.HadoopFileIO.newOutputFile(HadoopFileIO.java:64) at org.apache.iceberg.BaseMetastoreTableOperations.writeNewMetadata(BaseMetastoreTableOperations.java:137) at org.apache.iceberg.aws.glue.GlueTableOperations.doCommit(GlueTableOperations.java:105) at org.apache.iceberg.BaseMetastoreTableOperations.commit(BaseMetastoreTableOperations.java:118) at org.apache.iceberg.BaseMetastoreCatalog$BaseMetastoreCatalogTableBuilder.create(BaseMetastoreCatalog.java:215) at org.apache.iceberg.BaseMetastoreCatalog.createTable(BaseMetastoreCatalog.java:48) at org.apache.iceberg.catalog.Catalog.createTable(Catalog.java:105) The NPE is because `conf` is null in that method, but I verified that icebergCatalog.hadoopConf is the expected object. Should it be expected that the GlueCatalog can be used with HadoopFileIO or is it only compatible with S3FileIO?
