Hi, I am trying to set drill administrators but it’s just not working. I have setup a custom authenticator that uses a backend database for authentication, and that is working. The only problem is I am a “user” not an administrator, leaving me essentially powerless and drill useless.
First, I think the instructions<https://drill.apache.org/docs/configuring-web-console-and-rest-api-security/> are not clear, it is not clear to me if I should be executing the SET statement from the web console or something else. I have tried this: I updated my drill-override.conf, I have attempted setting “drill.exec.security.admin.users” and “security.admin.users”. I have set them to single values and also attempted putting the values in brackets like a list. None of these combinations have worked. It was unclear to me how I was supposed to run your SQL statements when I am not an administrator in the first place. Then I guessed I should try it from the sqlline, but that also is not working. sqlline> ALTER SYSTEM SET `security.admin.users` = "my_id"; No current connection Why is it saying that I have no current connection? What am I missing here?
