Damien Carol commented on HIVE-8329: ------------------------------------ when using jdbc connector for stats, JDBCStatsPublisher throws errors. Here the error in the logs : {noformat} 14/10/02 09:49:11 ERROR jdbc.JDBCStatsPublisher: Error during JDBC initialization. org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: relation "partition_stats_v2" already exists at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.receiveErrorResponse(QueryExecutorImpl.java:2096) at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.processResults(QueryExecutorImpl.java:1829) at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.execute(QueryExecutorImpl.java:257) at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.execute(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:510) at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeWithFlags(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:372) at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeUpdate(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:300) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.stats.jdbc.JDBCStatsPublisher.init(JDBCStatsPublisher.java:286) {noformat} It is a side effect of mixing lower case and upper case. To understand this bug : 1. JDBC stats publisher use this code to check if table exists. {code} // Check if the table exists DatabaseMetaData dbm = conn.getMetaData(); rs = dbm.getTables(null, null, JDBCStatsUtils.getStatTableName(), null); boolean tblExists = rs.next(); if (!tblExists) { // Table does not exist, create it String createTable = JDBCStatsUtils.getCreate(""); stmt.executeUpdate(createTable); } {code} 2. But {{JDBCStatsUtils.getStatTableName()}} value is {{PARTITION_STATS_V2}} in *uppercase*. 3. The Metastore try to create an already existing table. > Enable postgres for storing stats > --------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-8329 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8329 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Statistics > Affects Versions: 0.14.0 > Reporter: Damien Carol > Assignee: Damien Carol > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > > Simple patch to enable postgresql as JDBC publisher for statistics. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
