Anthony Hsu commented on HIVE-3779: ----------------------------------- In case you're still using an older version of Hive that doesn't let you disable the history log files, one workaround that you can use is to run {code} !rm -r /path/to/hive.querylog.location; {code} as your first shell command before running your queries. > An empty value to hive.logquery.location can't disable the creation of hive > history log files > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3779 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3779 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Documentation > Affects Versions: 0.9.0 > Reporter: Bing Li > Priority: Minor > > In AdminManual Configuration > (https://cwiki.apache.org/Hive/adminmanual-configuration.html), the > description of hive.querylog.location mentioned that if the variable set to > empty string structured log will not be created. > But it fails with the following setting, > <property> > <name>hive.querylog.location</name> > <value></value> > </property> > It seems that it can NOT get an empty value from > HiveConf.ConfVars.HIVEHISTORYFILELOC, but the default value. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
