Aditya Shah reassigned HIVE-21739: ---------------------------------- > Make metastore DB backward compatible with pre-catalog versions of hive. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-21739 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21739 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Affects Versions: 2.1.1, 1.2.0 > Reporter: Aditya Shah > Assignee: Aditya Shah > Priority: Major > > Since the addition of foreign key constraint between Database ('DBS') table > and catalogs ('CTLGS') table in HIVE-18755 we are able to run a simple create > database command with an older version of Metastore Server. This is due to > older versions having JDO schema as per older schema of 'DBS' which did not > have an additional 'CTLG_NAME' column. > The error is as follows: > {code:java} > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.HiveException: > MetaException(message:Exception thrown flushing changes to datastore) > .... > java.sql.BatchUpdateException: Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign > key constraint fails ("metastore_1238"."DBS", CONSTRAINT "CTLG_FK1" FOREIGN > KEY ("CTLG_NAME") REFERENCES "CTLGS" ("NAME")) > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
