----------------------------------
Summary: Default Hive home is not being set properly under certain
circumstances
Key: SQOOP-2145
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-2145
Project: Sqoop
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.4.6
Reporter: Mark Grover
Assignee: Mark Grover
Fix For: 1.4.6
Attachments: SQOOP-2145.1.patch
Currently, we have a bunch of _HOME defaults that are detected in
bin/configure-sqoop. However, HIVE_HOME is not there. The only default for
HIVE_HOME is hardcoded in java at
https://github.com/apache/sqoop/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/sqoop/SqoopOptions.java#L64
and that's not enough. The reason is often times people have tarballs like
~/sqoop, ~/hive, etc. and it would be good to have their hive import jobs work
out of the book. It makes sense to add some smartness (we already have that for
other components like hcatalog) related to HIVE_HOME in configure-sqoop.
This doesn't regress anything because it only sets the HIVE_HOME if it's not
already set and the directory it's setting it to exists and is valid.
