it looks hiveserver2 is not able to create zk node in zookeeper, it could be issue at zookeeper side

could you please check whether zk node got created or not using

/usr/hdp/current/zookeeper-client/bin/zkCli.sh -server localhost:2181

ls /hiveserver2

see if you have issue with zookeeper server.

hi @Rajkumar Singh, this is what i see in the ZK

[zk: localhost(CONNECTED) 1] ls /hiveserver2 [serverUri=abcd.solutions.local:10000;version=1.2.1000.2.4.0.0-169;sequence=0000000000]

@ARUN

is this a standalone zk or running zk quorum?

avatar

could you please attach complete hiveserver2 logs, it looks hs2 is not able to create zknode, this could be kerberos issue if you running in secure env or there might be zookeeper database inconsisency.

to rule out zk database inconsistencies you can try

stop all services which are using zk

change ZooKeeper directory location after browsing ambari=> zookeeper=> conf, by default it is /hadoop/zookeeper

start all reservices

@Rajkumar Singh, i removed the znode /hiveserver2 from zk after stopping hive service. restarted again.it is running fine for more than 20 mins. Let me see what happens. Thanks for your help

@ARUN

Looks like there is an issue with zookeeper. Can you please share zookeeper logs and look for any errors

avatar
@Rajkumar Singh

it is a quorum of 3 servers

Login to zk command line using zkCli.sh and after logging in check the contents of Hiveserver2 znode and in my case it is [ ], empty.

Delete the HS2 znode using del command and restart HS2 again.

Yes, it is working after Delete the HS2 znode using del command and restart HS2.
