There are a number of settings for Jobhistory that can be causing it to expire and remove the logs.

The first is the number of milliseconds that it will keep a job and its logs around (log removal only applies if log aggregation is in use). The default is 7 days. The second is the number of jobs and the default is 20,000. That sounds like a lot of I have seen large, active clusters burn through that in 2 - 3 days.

Thread is old but I have had the same problem.

Resolution:
The value of history_server_api_url in hue.ini should be the same as the YARN history server (yarn.log.server.url setting in YARN).
If not, update hue.ini and restart Hue.

Hello there,

What permission needs to be changed in order to get this issue resolved. I have checked for all the configuration parameters and everything looks good. Permission might be the issue in my case too.

Thanks

Sunil
