NiFi execution fails with error: Could not find uri with key [dfs.encryption.key.provider.uri] to create a keyProvider with no Ranger KMS

[#1]

Hi,

While executing a spark + scala job in NiFi, flow is stopped because of below error:

"ERROR KeyProviderCache: Could not find uri with key [dfs.encryption.key.provider.uri] to create a keyProvider !!"

Note: We are not using RANGER KMS.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7931

The above is the bug related to error and we are using HDFS -> 2.7.3 and HDP -> 2.6.4.0

Could someone help me on this.

[#2]

More information:

Issue : Same .sh file is executing fine from command line even it prompts ERROR message and failing in nifi. Please see attached screenshots for more info. Case 1 : Working from command level (execution of .sh file which consists spark-submit action by passing .scala file)

Case 2 : Not working from nifi (execution of .sh file which consists spark-submit action by passing .scala file) with ExecuteStreamCommand processor

[#3]

can you update to hdp 2.6.5

[#4]

It is a tough decision to upgrade to hdp 2.6.5 and can I get any workaround for this issue?

Is it possible from NiFi processor settings to make workflow ignore the above Error??

This error is really not an error and if there is a workaround or solution from NiFi end to ignore this error then it would be a better solution.

@Timothy Spann

It is a tough decision for now to go for upgrade. Any feasible workaround either from apache NiFi or Hadoop?

Also, is there a way in apache NiFi processor settings to direct NiFi to ignore the mentioned ERROR.

[#6]

what user is running the NiFi Server? what version of NiFi? is this HDF version?

@Timothy Spann

NiFi server is running as root user and we are using apache version of NiFi and we are not using HDF.

a) NiFi is running as root user:

b) Version of NiFi:

Apache NiFi - 1.7.0

[#8]

most people use Ranger KMS to avoid this issue.

[#9]

It appears that the custom *.sh script is failing due to that error, which tells NiFi to route to non-zero status output. NiFi doesn't monitor the console for output messages to determine error status, so if this condition should not cause failure, you will need to change the script to indicate that.

The bulletins visible on the ExecuteStreamCommand processor in your screenshot are INFO messages about routing the flowfile to the original relationship. They are not errors.

Hi @Andy LoPresto

Not only NiFi to route to non-zero status output in this case. It is failing to give expected results for that code statement.

Case1 : Analysis of execution of .sh from command line

CodeStatement1-Executed and gave expected results

ERROR on screen - still continuing execution

CodeStatement2-Executed and gave expected resulsts

Case2: Analysis of execution of .sh from nifi

Code is not executing hence no expected output

My observation : NiFi is clearing execution result/status once it prompts for ERROR

We need to make sure "ERROR KeyProviderCache: Could not find uri with key [dfs.encryption.key.provider.uri] to create a keyProvider !! " should't prompt in screen, it is fine if we set a temporary property from hdfs/hive/spark-scala/.sh/nifi .
