Jaume M commented on HIVE-20283:
--------------------------------
In this case starting with
{code}
hive --service metastore --hiveconf hive.root.logger=INFO,console
{code}
splits the logs in the main console and in sends some to /tmp/user/hive.log.
This case is different than for HiveServer2 because currently [here |
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/standalone-metastore/metastore-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HiveMetaStore.java#L9103]
the file will be found since in /bin.hive we do
{code}
export HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS="$HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS
-Dlog4j.configurationFile=hive-log4j2.properties "
{code}
so {{LogUtils.initHiveLog4j(conf);}} is not called as in HiveServer2. Setting
{{hive.root.logger = INFO,console}} in hive-site.xml is therefore (always?)
ignored and also setting it with
{{HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS=-Dhive.root.logger=INFO,console }} doesn't work.
However {{HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS=-Dhive.root.logger=console }} works.
I think the best options here is to throw an exception and ask the user to fill
hive-log4j2.properties, wdyt [~prasanth_j] [~kgyrtkirk] ?
> Logs may be directed to 2 files if --hiveconf hive.log.file is used
