Error starting HIVE metastore

avatar
Explorer

Follow the suggestions from https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/98770/hive-metastore-does-not-start.html, I had changed the value of 'bind-address' in the mysql configuration file /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf to '0.0.0.0', I still get following errors

I setup the cluster using Ambari on Ubuntu 16

Hi Amarnath,

A question regarding the JDBC test program you recommended. When run the test, why I only success with 'localhost' but failed with FQDN name? Could you indicating that somewhere, the setting is wrong? Here is what i got:

Hi Amarnath and Geoffrey,

I cleaned up my system and reinstalled everything with Ambari. The installation went well, but I still cannot start Metastore. But this time, I got different error messages. I created a new ticket. Could you help check it out?

Thanks,

Harry

Can you try to login mysql as "hive" user:

mysql -u hive -passWord  <Password>  -h <FQDN>

No. I don't think so. And I don't recall that I created user for mysql during Ambari installation process

root@msl-dpe-perf74:~# mysql -u hive -passWord  hive  -h msl-dpe-perf74.msl.lab
mysql: [Warning] Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'msl-dpe-perf74.msl.lab' (111)

@Harry Li

Do the following as root create the hive user with the following privileges

mysql -u root -h localhost 
Create user hive identified by 'hive'; 
grant all on hive.* to hive; 
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON hive.* TO 'hive'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'hive'; 
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON hive.* TO 'hive'@'<FQDN_of_Mysql>'IDENTIFIED BY 'hive'; 
flush privileges; 
quit; 

As the hive user with the assumption, here database,user and password are hive for simplicity

mysql -u hive -phive 
create database hive; 
show databases; 
quit;

Now use these credentials for setting up the hive database and user n Ambari user and test connection to the hive database, it should succeed before you can successfully start hive !!

I already have hive user in mysql. But seems only good if I use 'local' host. When use FQDN, access to data base is denied

@Harry Li

Can you share your the output of ,please adopt were necessary the proper user root or use sudo

# hostname -f 

Set the hostname

sudo hostnamectl set-hostname your-new-name 

Now you will need to edit 2 files the /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts file and replace the hostname with your earlier choice above

sudo -H gedit /etc/hostname 
sudo -H gedit /etc/hosts 

Without restarting your machine, just run the command below to restart the hostname service to apply changes:

sudo systemctl restart systemd-logind.service 

When editing the /etc/ hosts, don't tamper with the first line is always going to be for localhost with the loopback IP address.The second line is where you change the hostname

127.0.0.1 localhost 
127.0.0.1 your_new_hostname 

If you want to reference the hostname with the server public IP address and not the loopback, you can add a third line with server public IP and hostname.

127.0.0.1 localhost 
127.0.0.1 your_new_hostname 
10.56.100.30 your_new_hostname    # server IP and hostname  

That should resolve your problem. Please revert

Hi Geoffrey,

With changes, I can not access mysql using FQDN, but still failed with hive metastore. The error message is a little different than the original with SQL error code 1045.

Please advise,

Thanks.

@Harry Li

Can you run the below as root on against your Mysql databases, assuming again the user/password and db is hive

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON hive.* TO 'hive'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'hive'; 
flush privileges; 
quit;

The retry I see now is a permission issue.
