Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-12880:
-----------------------------------------
Looking further on the script, I see it tries to find Spark automatically and
add the jar, which seems even worse, i.e. in my case I wasn't even trying to
use Spark.
> spark-assembly causes Hive class version problems
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-12880
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12880
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Hui Zheng
>
> It looks like spark-assembly contains versions of Hive classes (e.g.
> HiveConf), and these sometimes (always?) come from older versions of Hive.
> We've seen problems where depending on classpath perturbations, NoSuchField
> errors may be thrown for recently added ConfVars because the HiveConf class
> comes from spark-assembly.
> Would making sure spark-assembly comes last in the classpath solve the
> problem?
> Otherwise, can we depend on something that does not package older Hive
> classes?
> Currently, HIVE-12179 provides a workaround (in non-Spark use case, at least;
> I am assuming this issue can also affect Hive-on-Spark).
