Alice Fan commented on HIVE-20237:
----------------------------------
Hi [~belugabehr], why do we want to put this at debug level instead of
LOG.error level? Shouldn't exception be at error level?
{code:java}
} catch (Exception e) {
HMSHandler.LOG.error("Error", e);
throw e;
}
{code}
> Do Not Print StackTraces to STDERR in HiveMetaStore

> Key: HIVE-20237
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20237
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Standalone Metastore
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 4.0.0
> Reporter: BELUGA BEHR
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: newbie, noob
>
> {code:java|title=HiveMetaStore.java}
> } catch (Throwable x) {
> x.printStackTrace();
> HMSHandler.LOG.error(StringUtils.stringifyException(x));
> throw x;
> }
> {code}
> Bad design here of "log and throw". Don't do it. Just throw the exception
> and let it be handled, and logged, in one place. At the very least, we don't
> need the error message to go into the STDERR logs with {{printStackTrace}},
> please remove. And remove the {{stringifyException}} code. Just use the
> normal logging faciltiies at the 'debug' level logging to hide the stack
> trace during normal operations.
> {code}
> HMSHandler.LOG.debug("Error", e);
> {code}
