Hi, I am trying to connect to a hive metastore deployed in a oracle db. I have the hive configuration specified in the hive-site.xml. I put the hive-site.xml under $SPARK_HOME/conf. If I run spark-shell, everything works fine. I can create hive database, tables and query the tables.
However, when I try to do that in a spark application, running in local mode, i.e., I have sparkConf.setMaster("local[*]").setSparkHome(<my spark home installation>), it does not seem to pick up the hive-site.xml. It still uses the local derby Hive metastore instead of the oracle metastore that I defined in hive-site.xml. If I add the hive-site.xml explicitly on the classpath, I am getting the following error: Caused by: org.datanucleus.api.jdo.exceptions.TransactionNotActiveException: Transaction is not active. You either need to define a transaction around this, or run your PersistenceManagerFactory with 'NontransactionalRead' and 'NontransactionalWrite' set to 'true' FailedObject:org.datanucleus.exceptions.TransactionNotActiveException: Transaction is not active.

How do I ask Spark to look at the hive-site.xml in the $SPARK_HOME/conf directory in my spark application? Thanks very much. Any pointer will be much appreciated.
