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

             Summary: Metastore shuts down when no delegation token is found in 
ZooKeeper
                 Key: HIVE-13075
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13075
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Piotr Wikieł
            Priority: Minor


{{ZooKeeperTokenStore}} looks [as 
follows|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/branch-1.2/shims/common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/thrift/ZooKeeperTokenStore.java#L397]:

{code:java}
@Override
public DelegationTokenInformation getToken(DelegationTokenIdentifier 
tokenIdentifier) {
  byte[] tokenBytes = zkGetData(getTokenPath(tokenIdentifier));
  try {
    return 
HiveDelegationTokenSupport.decodeDelegationTokenInformation(tokenBytes);
  } catch (Exception ex) {
    throw new TokenStoreException("Failed to decode token", ex);
  }
}
{code}

which is slightly different from [DBTokenStore 
implementation|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/branch-1.2/shims/common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/thrift/DBTokenStore.java#L85]
 that is protected against {{tokenBytes==null}} because nullable {{tokenBytes}} 
causes NPE to be thrown in 
[HiveDelegationTokenSupport#decodeDelegationTokenInformation|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/branch-1.2/shims/common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/security/token/delegation/HiveDelegationTokenSupport.java#L51]

Furthermore, NPE thrown here causes 
[TokenStoreDelegationTokenSecretManager.ExpiredTokenRemover|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/branch-1.2/shims/common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/thrift/TokenStoreDelegationTokenSecretManager.java#L333]
 to catch it and exits MetaStore.

{{null}} from 
{{[zkGetData()|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/branch-1.2/shims/common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/thrift/ZooKeeperTokenStore.java#L284]}}
 is possible during ZooKeeper failure or (and that was our case) when another 
metastore instance removes tokens during {{ExpiredTokenRemover}} run. There 
were two solutions of this problem:

 * distributed lock in ZooKeeper acquired during one metastore instance's 
ExpiredTokenRemover run,
 * simple null check

I think null check is sufficient if it is in {{DBTokenStore}}.

Patch will be attached.
