             Summary: hivemetastore-report.json.tmp permission errors in hive 
metastore, HS2 logs
                 Key: AMBARI-19558
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-19558
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-server
    Affects Versions: trunk, 2.5.0
            Reporter: Dmytro Grinenko
            Assignee: Dmytro Grinenko
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: trunk, 2.5.0


Noticed that the test cluster has lots of "hivemetastore-report.json.tmp 
(Permission denied)" errors (every 5 seconds).

It is happening because user hive is running as user custom-hive while only 
user hive has permission for /var/log/hive/ . This location is determined by 
the config hive.service.metrics.file.location, which is set to 
/var/log/hive/hivemetastore-report.json . The log4j logs are going into 
/grid/0/log/hive/.

A fix would be to change value of this config to use whatever logging directory 
is being used instad of hardcoding to /var/log/hive/. However, we are already 
publishing the metrics via graphana, so this is not needed.

A quick fix would be to change the config to 
hive.service.metrics.reporter=HADOOP2 in hive-server2-site and hive-metastore .

The old value is - 
hive.service.metrics.reporter=JSON_FILE, JMX, HADOOP2. The suggested change 
above will remove JMX as well, as we anyway aren't setting any of the required 
JMX params. Setting JMX reporter is an unnecessary overhead.
