Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-8408: ------------------------------------- Note that with V2 authorizer, it is only the additional hcat cli checks that get disabled. The regular checks that would happen with hive cli would still happen. > hcat cli throws NPE when authorizer using new api is enabled > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-8408 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8408 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Authorization, HCatalog > Reporter: Jagruti Varia > Assignee: Thejas M Nair > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-8408.1.patch > > > Hcat cli tries to authorize actions using the authorizer configured for > hive-cli.
