Environment: HDP 2.3 Sandbox
Problem: I have created a table in hive with just 2 columns. Now i want to read this in my MR code using HCatalog integration. The MR Job fails to read the table from the MySql meta-store. It uses the Derby for some reason and hence it fails with "table not found" message.
Job Client code:
public class HCatalogMRJob extends Configured implements Tool {
public int run(String[] args) throws Exception {
Configuration conf = getConf();
args = new GenericOptionsParser(conf, args).getRemainingArgs();
String inputTableName = args[0];
String outputTableName = args[1];
String dbName = null;
Job job = new Job(conf, "HCatalogMRJob");
HCatInputFormat.setInput(job, dbName, inputTableName);
job.setInputFormatClass(HCatInputFormat.class);
job.setJarByClass(HCatalogMRJob.class);
job.setMapperClass(HCatalogMapper.class);
job.setReducerClass(HCatalogReducer.class);
job.setMapOutputKeyClass(IntWritable.class);
job.setMapOutputValueClass(IntWritable.class);
job.setOutputKeyClass(WritableComparable.class);
job.setOutputValueClass(DefaultHCatRecord.class);
HCatOutputFormat.setOutput(job, OutputJobInfo.create(dbName, outputTableName, null));
HCatSchema s = HCatOutputFormat.getTableSchema(conf);
System.err.println("INFO: output schema explicitly set for writing:"
+ s);
HCatOutputFormat.setSchema(job, s);
job.setOutputFormatClass(HCatOutputFormat.class);
return (job.waitForCompletion(true) ? 0 : 1);
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
int exitCode = ToolRunner.run(new HCatalogMRJob(), args);
System.exit(exitCode);
}
}Job Run Command:
hadoop jar mr-hcat.jar input_table out_table
Before running this command, i have set the necessary hcatalog, hive jars in the class path using the hadoop_classpath variable.
Question:
Now, how do i make the job to use the hive-site.xml correctly?
I tried setting this in the classpath using the same hadoop_classpath as mentioned above., but still it fails.

Issue resolved by setting /etc/hive/conf in the classpath Instead of /etc/hive/conf/*.
