"Could not import desktop.export.views. Error was: No module named beeswax" when installing HUE

[#1]

Hi folks,

I've recently installed HDP 2.6.2.0 and now I want to install HUE by following this documentation:

HORTONWORKS DOCS » DATA PLATFORM 2.6.2 » COMMAND LINE INSTALLATION » Chapter 15. Installing Hue

After starting HUE for the first time this error is displayed when accessing the UI:

...
Exception Type: ViewDoesNotExist
Exception Value: Could not import desktop.export.views. Error was: No module named beeswax
...

I've reviewed the configuration file and probably I'm missing some important configuration.

Any suggestion would be appreciated,

Regards.

Jorge.

As of HDP 2.6, Hue is deprecated in favor of Ambari Views.

https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.2/bk_release-notes/content/deprecated_items.h...

You're welcome to download, compile, and setup Hue on your own, though. http://gethue.com/hadoop-hue-3-on-hdp-installation-tutorial/

You may also try this custom Ambari service. https://github.com/EsharEditor/ambari-hue-service

Ambari Views from a look at the manual doesn't seem to be comparable with Hue is there a link to say how to use Views as an interactive query engine like Hue?

We are running HDP 2.6 and the documentation suggests it should work. Did you manage to find a fix to your issue?
