Hi, Rangers , I am trying to send hive audit logs to kafka by following this link: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RANGER/Configuring+Kafka+log4j+appender+with+Apache+Ranger+Audits
Unfortunately, I saw no messages were sent to kafka and there was no error messages. What I have now: 1. Ranger (0.4) installed on hortonworks (2.2) 2. Kafka (0.8.x) 3. Hive audit logs are generated both in local fs and the repo on ranger. 4. No errors observed in hive-server2 logs, nor kafka.out 5. Based on the tutorial listed above, I have modified "hive-log4j.properties" and also add the jars (same version) to hive lib. Question: 1. If there any place that I can find related logs to debug the log4j appender failure? 2. Another question is that audit logs are only generated if i do the hive query through Hue. Seems Ranger's policies can not be applied to operation happened in hive terminal? Or there is something wrong with my configuration? Really appreciate your help. Thanks and regards, Da
