Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HCATALOG-63:
------------------------------------------
Another couple of miscellaneous install/run instructions
Run time instructions:
a) We need to export HADOOP_HOME before we can run hcat.
b) We need to export HIVE_CONF_DIR to /etc/hcatalog (or wherever we've
installed hcat's config before we can run the 'hive' commandline ('hcat'
cmdline works okay)
Install/Deploy-time instructions:
a) DB connector jar : we need a jdbc connector jar that we use for connecting
to whatever db we're using, and we also have to make sure a database server is
externally set up for use. This needs to be reflected in hcat-env.sh
(typically in /etc/hcatalog/) in the DBROOT parameter. ( for eg:, I have
DBROOT=/home/sush/opt/mysql-connector-java-3.1.14 , and I installed it there
from the tarball provided by mysql. No official rpm provided, and also license
incompatible if provided for distributing, but one can set that up themselves
to whatever db they desire)
b) cp /etc/hcatalog/proto-hive-site.xml /etc/hcatalog/hive-site.xml , hand-edit
and replace parameters in allcaps to whatever value makes sense in that
installation (DBHOSTNAME,PASSWORD,WAREHOUSE_DIR,KEYTAB_PATH) and/or hand-edit
other parameters that are desired (jdbc connection url, sasl_enabled, etc)
c) verify HADOOP_HOME,DBROOT and USER in /etc/hcat-env.sh is to deployer's
satisfaction.
