> Turns out malformed HMS database is pretty common phenomenon and
> MetastoreCacheInitializer.java is not really helpful in figuring out what's
> wrong. The result is failure in initializing MetastorePlugin.
> Adding simple stuff, like testing for returned null objects as opposed to
> waiting till dereferencing them produces NullPointerException would go a long
> way in making life easier.
