Hive on tez cannot execute custom hook program!!!

yucai — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 06:49:20 GMT

I developed a custom hook on CDH (6.2. X), implement the HiveDriverRunHook interface and ExecuteWithHookContext interface. It runs smoothly, but when I migrate the hook to CDP (7.1. X), I report an error and cannot execute it. I suspect it was caused by the Tez engine, but I cannot solve it and need help，thanks very much

Custom hook is not supported by Cloudera.

But I have implemented custom hooks on CDH, which means that custom hooks are no longer supported in CDP, right? Is there any other way for me to obtain information about hive without changing the source code? For example, SQL information or execution result information?

Hi @yucai , I have noticed your question, I think the Chinese PS team can help you. By the way, which company do you belong to? China UnionPay Data Services? Can you leave your contact information, we can have a quick call.

In CDP, when the HiveProtoLoggingHook is configured, query information is automatically captured and stored in the 'query_data' folder, which is typically located where 'hive.hook.proto.base-directory' is set. These details are saved as protobuf files, and in Hive, you can utilize the ProtobufMessageSerDe to access them.

To read this captured data, you can create a table as shown below.

CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE `query_data`( `eventtype` string COMMENT 'from deserializer', `hivequeryid` string COMMENT 'from deserializer', `timestamp` bigint COMMENT 'from deserializer', `executionmode` string COMMENT 'from deserializer', `requestuser` string COMMENT 'from deserializer', `queue` string COMMENT 'from deserializer', `user` string COMMENT 'from deserializer', `operationid` string COMMENT 'from deserializer', `tableswritten` array<string> COMMENT 'from deserializer', `tablesread` array<string> COMMENT 'from deserializer', `otherinfo` map<string,string> COMMENT 'from deserializer') PARTITIONED BY ( `date` string) ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.protobuf.ProtobufMessageSerDe' WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ( 'proto.class'='org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.hooks.proto.HiveHookEvents$HiveHookEventProto', 'proto.maptypes'='org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.hooks.proto.MapFieldEntry') STORED AS INPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.protobuf.ProtobufMessageInputFormat' OUTPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.HiveNullValueSequenceFileOutputFormat' LOCATION '<query_datalocation>' TBLPROPERTIES ( 'bucketing_version'='2', 'proto.class'='org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.hooks.proto.HiveHookEvents$HiveHookEventProto')

After creating the table, execute 'msck repair query_data sync partitions' to synchronize the partitions, and then you can retrieve and analyze the data using Beeline.
