We are pleased to announce the release of Hive ODBC v2.5.17 and Impala ODBC v2.5.31 drivers. This release has the following fixes and enhancements:
Hive ODBC v2.5.17
- Support for Debian 6
- Data encryption and integrity support for the SASL SSPI plugin
- Optimized retrieval of result set schemas
- Support for ODBC 3.80
- Improved implementation of SQLCancel
- Upgraded OpenSSL library
- Upgraded ICU library
- Issues resolved:
- The driver returns incorrect ODBC error code for authentication-related errors.
- When using the Windows version of the driver, a SideBySide error occurs due to a conflict in the OpenSSL and libcurl libraries being loaded.
- When attempting to execute a non-parameterized write-back statement multiple times, the driver only executes the statement against Hive once.
- The driver returns incorrect results for SET <property name> queries.
- When connected to Hive 0.13 or earlier, the driver cannot insert result sets from queries into tables.
- The driver does not correctly translate "INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE <table> PARTITION(...)SELECT ..." statements correctly.
- DSN configurations cannot be saved when you are working as a non-administrator user.
- When query execution results in a MapReduce error, the driver closes the current connection and opens a new one.
- The driver terminates unexpectedly when preparing a parameterized INSERT statement.
- The driver terminates unexpectedly when the application unloads the driver without closing all connections.
Impala ODBC v2.5.31
- Automatic configuration of driver manager settings
- Updated driver logging options
