Vineet Garg commented on HIVE-20149: ------------------------------------ HiveCli tries to run {{connect}} command, while running connect cli/beeline checks if hive conf is initialized if not it is initialized using {{set}} command. Initialization consists of executing {{set}} command and then using the result set buffered rows are created which are further used to fill conf objec, Buffered row/row needs to check the value of {{hive.cli.print.escape.crlf}} and therefore it also end up calling the same method which is trying to initialize hive conf resulting in downward spiral. I think getEscapeCRLF should not try to initialize/create conf and uses an existing one if it is initialized or otherwise just return false since {{connect}} or some other command should already have initialized conf by the time {{hive.cli.print.escape.crlf}} matters. > TestHiveCli failing/timing out > ------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-20149 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20149 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: CLI > Reporter: Vineet Garg > Assignee: Vineet Garg > Priority: Major > Attachments: HIVE-20149.1.patch > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
