Problem

While using LLAP, (can happen anytime, even though it was working a second ago), you might see a MetaException complaining about incorrect MySQL server syntax. Here is the the error output with 10 retries by default, so this could get lengthy.

0: jdbc:hive2://xlautomation-1.h.c:10500/defa> analyze table L3_MONTHLY_dw_dimRisk compute statistics for columns;
Getting log thread is interrupted, since query is done!

Assumptions

  • We are using mysql as backed Metastore DB
  • Error shows up only while running LLAP
  • HS2 works fine
  • Issue encountered on HDP-2.6.4 distro

Issue

Known bug with older version of mysql-connector https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=66659. This seems to have been addressed in version "mysql-connector-java-5.1.26" and above.

Solution(s)

  • Use a new mysql-connector version compatible with your Mysql backend DB version
  • If you do not see issues with HS2, then copy the mysql-connector JAR on this host where HSI (HiveServerInteractive) is installed, in this location "/usr/hdp/2.6.4.0-91/hive2/lib/". There is no softlink so it should be renamed to "mysql-connector-java.jar"

Validating the version

  • On host which serves HiveServer2 instance, look for mysql-connector*
[root@xlautomation-2 ~]# find /usr/hdp/2.6.4.0-91/ -name "mysql-connector*"
/usr/hdp/2.6.4.0-91/hive2/lib/mysql-connector-java-5.1.45-bin.jar
/usr/hdp/2.6.4.0-91/hive2/lib/mysql-connector-java.jar
/usr/hdp/2.6.4.0-91/hive/lib/mysql-connector-java.jar

  • Use the jar -xvf command by copying the files to a temp directory, should you want to validate the version. You should be able to do so, using:
[root@xlautomation-1]# mkdir abc
[root@xlautomation-1]# mv mysql-connector-java.jar ./abc
[root@xlautomation-1]# /usr/jdk64/jdk1.8.0_112/bin/jar -xvf mysql-connector-java.jar
[root@xlautomation-1]# cd META-INF/
[root@xlautomation-1]# head /tmp/abc/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

  • Default MySQL connector for HiveServer2 comes with a higher version, you can validate this using
[root@xlautomation-1 META-INF]# head /tmp/bcd/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
