Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-6050: ------------------------------------- bq. Do you guys have any thoughts on which would be a more common scenario to support: new jdbc driver compatible with old server version or old jdbc driver compatible with a newer server version? I think it is very important that one version of jdbc driver be able to talk to different versions of HS2. If the older version of driver is able to talk to newer versions of HS2, that would be the ideal case. > JDBC backward compatibility is broken > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-6050 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6050 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HiveServer2, JDBC > Reporter: Szehon Ho > Assignee: Carl Steinbach > Priority: Blocker > > Connect from JDBC driver of Hive 0.13 (TProtocolVersion=v4) to HiveServer2 of > Hive 0.10 (TProtocolVersion=v1), will return the following exception: > {noformat} > java.sql.SQLException: Could not establish connection to > jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000/default: Required field 'client_protocol' is > unset!
