Hi All, I just wanted to draw your attention to this change that went into master: https://gerrit.cloudera.org/#/c/5545/
It fixes a lot of the problems with impala-config.sh that people have experienced that manifest as errors downloading toolchain tarballs (we've had at least one discussion on this list). That should stop happening. The only thing that will stop working is that you can't set certain config variables (mainly version numbers) by setting the environment variables before sourcing impala-config.sh. It adds a different way to override config variables locally (aside from sticking them in your .bashrc). If you create a file called bin/impala-config-local.sh, you can assign variables in there that will override the defaults in impala-config.sh. E.g. you could add: IMPALA_HADOOP_VERSION=3.0.0-alpha1 This file is in .gitignore so should stay the same when you switch between branches. - Tim
