By default value is "/tmp/{user.name}" Hope It Helps, Chinna Rao Lalam ________________________________ From: Black, Brent [brent.bl...@disney.com] Sent: Friday, January 27, 2012 7:40 AM To: 'user@hive.apache.org' Subject: modify Hive history file location I'm attempting to change the default location where hive stores its history files. I modified the hive.log.dir property in the hive-exec-log4j.properties and hive-log4j.properties files. However, this only seemed to move the hive.log file to the new location. The hive_job_log* and *.pipeout files were still going to the default /tmp/{username} directory. I'm running Hive version 0.7.1 on CentOS. Is there some other property or environment variable I need to change to get hive to use something other than the /tmp directory for these files?
