Hi ,

using Ubuntu 14.0.4 and 16.0.4 unable to work with Impala via Python .

Installed :

pip install impyla

apt-get install libsasl2-dev python-dev libldap2-dev libssl-dev

pip install thrift_sasl
pip install sasl

thrift version install :

thrift (0.10.0)
thrift-sasl (0.2.1)

impyla (0.14.0)

The Example Code

------------------------------

from impala.dbapi import connect
conn = connect(host="104.198.200.187", port="25003", user="user", password='pass', auth_mechanism='PLAIN')

print "Connected Successfully"

cur = conn.cursor()

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

stack error :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/alon/PycharmProjects/test/test.py", line 6, in <module>
    cur = conn.cursor()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/impala/hiveserver2.py", line 125, in cursor
    session = self.service.open_session(user, configuration)

AttributeError: 'TSaslClientTransport' object has no attribute 'trans'
