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

             Summary: HiveServer2 JDBC (greater than v0.13.1) cannot connect to 
non-default database
                 Key: HIVE-11106
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11106
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: JDBC
    Affects Versions: 0.14.0
            Reporter: Tom Coleman
            Priority: Minor


Using HiveServer 0.14.0 or greater, I cannot connect a non-default database.

For example when connecting to HiveServer to via the following URLs, the 
session uses the 'default' database, instead of the intended database.
jdbc://localhost:10000/customDb

This exact issue was fixed in 0.13.1 of HiveServer from 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5904 but for some reason this fix 
was not ported to v0.14.0 or greater. From looking at the source, it looks as 
if this fix was overriden by another change to the HiveConnection class, was 
this intentional or a defect reintroduced from another defect fix?

This means that we need to use 0.13.1 in order to connect to a non-default 
database via JDBC and we cannot upgrade Hive versions.

Now it perhaps could be a simple oversight on my behalf in which the syntax to 
connect to a non-default database has changed from 0.14.0 onwards but I'd be 
grateful is this could be confirmed.
