Thomas Rega commented on HIVE-14888: ------------------------------------ Looking over the code in UserGroupInformation, it looks like both that class and hive are currently doing the same thing. In the UserGroupInformation initialize() method, there is a useKerberos boolean which is set in the case where the string is "kerberos". Do we need this code duplicated in hive? > SparkClientImpl checks for "kerberos" string in hiveconf only when > determining whether to use keytab file. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-14888 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14888 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: spark-branch > Affects Versions: 2.1.0 > Reporter: Thomas Rega > Assignee: Thomas Rega > Attachments: HIVE-14888.1-spark.patch > > Original Estimate: 5m > Remaining Estimate: 5m > > The SparkClientImpl will only provide a principal and keytab argument if the > HADOOP_SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION in hive conf is set to "kerberos". This will > not work on clusters with Hadoop security enabled that are not configured as > "kerberos", for example, a cluster which is configured for "ldap". > The solution is to call UserGroupInformation.isSecurityEnabled() instead. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
