Alan Gates commented on HIVE-4591: ---------------------------------- The work around for this is to set WEBHCAT_CONF_DIR. Two things should be done to fix this bug: # Make WEBHCAT_CONF_DIR have a default value that matches the directory structure of our release packages. # Document the use of WEBHCAT_CONF_DIR in the docs. > Making changes to webhcat-site.xml have no effect > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4591 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4591 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HCatalog > Affects Versions: 0.11.0 > Reporter: Eugene Koifman > Assignee: Eugene Koifman > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > Looks like WebHCat configuration is read as follows: > Configuration: core-default.xml, core-site.xml, mapred-default.xml, > mapred-site.xml, > jar:file:/Users/ekoifman/dev/hive/build/dist/hcatalog/share/webhcat/svr/webhcat-0.12.0-SNAPSHOT.jar!/webhcat-default.xml > creating > /Users/ekoifman/dev/hive/build/dist/hcatalog/etc/webhcat/webhcat-site.xml and > setting templeton.exec.timeout has no effect as can be seen in ExecServiceImpl > Probably the webhcat_server.sh script is missing something -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
