Jaume M commented on HIVE-19886: -------------------------------- [~kgyrtkirk] the choice of solutions are: * Some initial logs would be sent to a different file until the reconfiguration is done. These are the ones (since the Configuration object is created before the reconfiguration happens): {code} 2018-06-18T16:39:17,109 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Found configuration file file:/hadoop-3.1.0/etc/hadoop/hive-site.xml 2018-06-18T16:39:17,364 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Unable to find config file hivemetastore-site.xml 2018-06-18T16:39:17,364 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Found configuration file null 2018-06-18T16:39:17,365 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Unable to find config file metastore-site.xml 2018-06-18T16:39:17,365 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Found configuration file null {code} * Warn in both files that a split is happening. Although I would do this as well if we went with the first solution. * Raise an exception > Logs may be directed to 2 files if --hiveconf hive.log.file is used > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-19886 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-19886 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Logging > Affects Versions: 3.1.0, 4.0.0 > Reporter: Prasanth Jayachandran > Assignee: Jaume M > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Attachments: HIVE-19886.2.patch, HIVE-19886.2.patch, HIVE-19886.patch > > > hive launch script explicitly specific log4j2 configuration file to use. The > main() methods in HiveServer2 and HiveMetastore reconfigures the logger based > on user input via --hiveconf hive.log.file. This may cause logs to end up in > 2 different files. Initial logs goes to the file specified in > hive-log4j2.properties and after logger reconfiguration the rest of the logs > goes to the file specified via --hiveconf hive.log.file. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
